ZIRCAR Refractories Composites, Inc. has announced the introduction of its new refractory sheet type RS-1200, a high strength composite designed for use as thermo-mechanical and electrical insulation in applications with temperatures up to 1300C. RS-1200 is a combination of strong reinforcing fibers tightly bound in an alumina ceramic matrix. The material is completely inorganic and contains no asbestos or RCF fibers. It exhibits greater refractory properties and homogeneity than other reinforced alumina matrix composite products and can be readily machined to tight tolerances with conventional carbide tooling.
