Description

We offer Cast Basalt Lined Bends as per client’s requirement to suit their site conditions / layout. Quality of the product and Timely delivery is our main goal. We have different types of END connections i.e. flanges , loose flange with collar , Stub connection , welddable collar type etc.

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.

Cast basalt reaches a value of hardness of 8(min) on the Moh’s hardness scale. For comparison: the highest value10is only attained by diamonds. By virtue of these properties, the silicate cast basalt provides outstanding protection against abrasion and scrubbing.

However, it is marked by ascertain sensitivity to impacts. Under Normal services conditions, cast basalt withstands temperatures up to approx. + 350C or-40C. However Cast basalt should not be subjected to temperature shocks.

Sizes: Cast basalt produces are manufactured as tiles, from pieces and segments. Straight pipes are spun-cast, available for nominal bores of 32 to 600 mm with the wall thickness ranging from 20 to 30mm and a standard length of 500mm.samller nominal bores of straight pipes, pipe segment for radial of 40 to 3,000mm of various angles, as well as special form piece linings are predominantly sand-cast. The standard wall-thickness is 20mm. depending on the respective quantity, steel moulds can also be used, the wall thickness in those cases usually being 30 to 40mm.

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

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.

Basalt is a dark, dense-looking rock, often with small porphyritic crystals, and weathering to a brown colour on exposed surfaces. It is the commonest of all lavas, the basalt flows of the world being estimated to have five times the volume of all other extrusive rocks together. Basalt also forms small intrusions.

Basalt casts are considered the best lining materials for industries dealing with abrasion resistance.

The excellent performance of cast basalt lined steel pipe is that it sets tenacity of steel pipe, abrasive resistance of cast basalt pipe, concreteness of cement mortar in one.

This greatly improves the products adaptive capacity in complicated operation conditions. At the same time. Cement mortar is selected as the filling material and this can make the inside surface of steel pipe in alkali mediums. So the surface of steel pipe generates purifying films. These films can prevent being rusted.
