Cuprothal® SX is a copper-nickel alloy (CuNi alloy) used for the negative leg of compensating cables for thermocouples type S/R. Cuprothal® SX must be matched with electrolytic copper (ASTM B3) to meet the reference standard. A copper-nickel alloy (CuNi alloy) used for the negative leg
Cuprothal® WX is an austenitic copper-nickel alloy (CuNi) alloy used for the negative leg of the compensating cable for thermocouples type K. Cuprothal® WX must be matched with iron to meet the reference standards. An austenitic copper-nickel alloy (CuNi) alloy used for the negative leg
Thermocouple iron is used for the positive leg of thermocouples type J and L. The alloy is also used as the positive leg of compensating cables type KCA (WX). The alloy is transformed magnetically at 770°C (1420°F) and a crystallographic transformation occurs at 900°C (1650°F).
Kanthal® APM is an advanced powder-metallurgical, dispersion-strengthened, ferritic iron-chromium-aluminium alloy (FeCrAl alloy) with exceptionally good form stability and oxidation resistance. It is suitable for furnace temperatures up to 1250°C (2282°F). The alloy offers a unique
Nikrothal® 35/19 Cb is an austenitic nickel-chromium alloy (NiCr alloy) with addition of niobium. It is characterized by high mechanical strength and suitable for furnace temperatures up to 1100°C (2012°F). Typical applications for Nikrothal® 35/19 Cb are as wire in mesh belts.
Radiant tubes for very high temperatures and severe conditions Tubes made of Kanthal® APM or Kanthal® APMT iron-chromium-aluminium (FeCrAl alloys) are designed to withstand higher temperatures as well as carburizing and sulfidizing atmospheres. Their service life is considerably longer
Radiant tubes for medium high temperatures When furnace conditions are not too demanding, a nickel-chromium (NiCr) radiant tube can prove to be the most economical choice.
Radiant tubes for tougher conditions at the burner leg In some furnaces not all parts of a radiant tube is exposed to extreme temperatures. In these cases, an alternative is to use Kanthal® APM or Kanthal® APMT iron-chromium-aluminium (FeCrAl) alloy for the burner leg and a nickel-chromium
Superthal® Mini is a complete compact heater used in melting and processing, easy to control and can be rapidly heated up and cooled with a uniform temperature profile.
