Salamander Super is a high quality ceramic bonded clay graphite crucible range manufactured by plastic forming techniques. 

Salamander Super crucibles are used to provide consistent performance in fuel-fired furnaces and medium / high frequency induction furnaces. The smaller sizes are typically used to melt precious metals, while larger sizes can be used for some ferrous alloys such as grey iron as well as to melt non-ferrous alloys.

Typical Metal Casting Temperature 850 - 1600°C (1562 - 2912°F)

Performance Characteristics.

• Clean melting

• Good thermal conductivity

• Good resistance to chemical corrosion

• High refractoriness.

PREHEATING / FIRST USE FUEL-FIRED FURNACES:

A new crucible should be pre-heated empty in order to minimise the temperature gradient across the crucible wall. If the furnace refractories have been repaired or if there is a risk of the crucible having absorbed some moisture, then the furnace should initially be heated slowly up to circa 200ºC and held at this temperature until all moisture has been driven off.
