Cast Basalt is a mineral of exceptionally high abrasion resistance, unlimited resistance to moisture, high compressive strength and resistance to virtually all acids and alkalis and is completely corrosion free. Cast blast is produced by melting selected natural basalt broken into sizes of 20-50 mm in shaft furnaces at temperatures around 1,300C, following by casting at which the melted basalt forms uniforms pherolithic crystals hence producing its typical physical properties, in particular its exceptional hardness and wear-resistance.

Ceramic Lined Equipment and Bends:

Hard & Compact Smooth & Inner Withstands High-Abrasion & Corrosion In any of the process industries especially Sled and Cement corrosion and abrasion lead to significant downtime of the plant. Further, the useful life or the equipment itself may get impaired because of the high abrasive nature of the materials being used. Thus, ‘wear mechanism’ results in hut down, replacement, etc., which is costly, resulting in loss to tilt: tunic of millions of rupees.

Characteristics:

  • High resistance to all types of chemicals
  • High resistant to sliding abrasion
  • Non weld ability & smooth surface results ill easy How of materials.
  • Can With stand and temperature up to 200 C.
  • Smooth Surface and resistant to abrasion & corrosion
Material Thickness(mm) Approx. Life ( Months )
 Mild Steel 10 3-5
 Cast Iron 20 6-8
 Ni-Hard 20 12-14
 Cast Basalt 30 20-25
Ceramic 10 35-40

Technical Details:

  • Friction Resistance: As more material is passed over Cast Basalt, it gets polished up thereby reducing friction further. Cast Basalt improves in service after getting polished. Wetting also improves its performance in practical applications.
  • Impact Resistance: Direct Impact Resistance at a perpendicular angle is low like all other ceramics, but it can be increased with proper installation by reducing the angle of impact. Cast Basalt can be used to mitigate sliding abrasion. Moreover, external impact strength of composite basalt pipe (enclosed in M.S. Shell) is always more than that of bare Ni-hard Pipe.
  • Chemical Resistance: Cast Basalt is almost absolutely acid/alkali resistant (except Hydrofluoric Acid) and hence corrosion resistant.
  • Weight and Sizes: Basalt Tiles are available in regular shape square of 200 x 200 x 30 mm thick, weighing approximately 90 kg/sq. m; whereas bends and pipes are lined using Basalt Cylinders of various standard sizes from 50NB up to 500NB.
  • Temperature: Cast Basalt withstands temperature up to 450ºC.
  • Life: Life of basalt-lined pipe is estimated to be 7 to 10 times that of Cast Iron, and 3 to 4 times that of Ni-hard Steel.

Specifications:

  • Specific Gravity :  2.8 to 3.1 gm/cm3
  • Compressive Strength:  Minimum 4500 kg/cm2
  • Hardness:  8 as compared to 10 of Diamond Moh’s Scale.
  • Abrasion:  0.4 mm material loss (max.)

 

Applications Area:

  1. Thermal Power Stations: Raw Coal Chutes/ Hoppers, Feed Bunker/Coal Bunker, Ash Pits, Crushers, Bottom Ash, Disposal Slurry, Dust Lines/ Bends, Pipeline/Bends, Fly Ash. Trenches below Hopper and pipelines, Pulverized Coal Piping
