Features & Benefits

Saint-Gobain's HeatKing™ range of products offer advantages in cost savings in the overall production as compared to other refractory linings. With the help of our savings calculator, we are able to provide detailed information about how the use of HeatKing™ products provides savings in costs of a number of elements including refractory, former, energy, silico manganese or maintenance time and effort.

Higher metal purity owing to less "inclusions" that ensure quality in-line with BIS Standards and fully compatible with the De-PHOS process

Lower cost per unit mass of hot metal produced on account of:

  • 4 to 5 times higher campaign life with the option of multiple "patchings"
  • More efficient Alloy Recovery
  • Possibility to keep hot heel in furnaces
  • Less power consumption
  • Lower labour

Clear increase in productivity on account of:

  • Longer life and less down time
  • Optimization of former design

No chance of metal penetration, if installation is done properly because of:

  • High refractoriness of the lining (as compared to acidic linings)
  • Back-up powder layer

Unique lining structure that ensures lower power consumption (less CO2 footprint) thanks to:

  • Optimized powder back-up lining leading to minimal conduction loss
  • Optimized lining thickness leading to maximum induction heating
