Performance Overview
PK INDUSTRIES Casting Powder contains low melting constituents that quickly produce liquid slag. This slag penetrates the mould-shell gap and improves lubrication and thermal control.
We supply formulations for billet, bloom, and slab casting routes. Grades can be customized for casting speed, steel chemistry, and mould dimensions.
