Stalk for Low-Pressure Casting Machines

We offer a line-up of stalks and thermocouple protection tubes, as Sialon parts for lowpressure casting machines.
Also, we are attempting to create a good seal against air leakage by making use of a composite metal and Sialon structure so as to maintain the required die load and prevent breakage.

Sizes available
Outer diameter (mm) : Max 234 dia.
Length (mm) : Max 1,400

Immersion Heater Tube for Holding Furnaces

Especially useful for disposition of Na fluxes. Applicable to such heat sources as gas burners and electric heaters.

Sizes available
Outer diameter (mm) : Max 300 dia.
Length (mm) : Max 1,600

Shot Sleeve for High-Pressure Diecasting Machines

  1. 1Reduce Cold Flakes (“Cold Flakes”) :solidified aluminum defect pieces (scattered structure) formed in shot sleeve

    Superior heat-retention. “Possibility of no heating equipment“

  2. 2Stable shots and longer life (Especially at High temperature ≧ 700℃ or 1290°F)

    Less deformation, High corrosion resistance, Erosion resistance and Wear resistance. “Possibility of no water cooling channel“

  3. 3Energy saving

    Sialon’s superior heat-retention enables lower molten aluminum casting temperature.

Sialon and Super Sialon

Proterial's Sialon and Super Sialon are ideal for jigs and tools that come into direct contact with molten aluminum on the aluminum melting and casting line.
Proterial has developed this heat-resisting, highstrength ceramic material based on its long experience in processing metals, and has used it in molten aluminumhandling parts.

Features of Sialon and Super Sialon Parts for Handling Molten Aluminum

  1. 1Little or no contamination of molten aluminum.
  2. 2Little or no corrosion from molten aluminum.
  3. 3Little or no adherence of molten aluminum.
  4. 4High strength remaining intact within the temperature range of molten aluminum.
  5. 5Two different thermal conductivity

    Low thermal conductivity : Sialon is for higher heat retention required parts such as Stalk.
    High thermal conductivity : Super Sialon is for higher heat transfer required parts such as Heater Tube
