Highly Exothermic blind Sleeves – Cylindrical Type are specialized foundry consumables used in metal casting processes. These sleeves are part of the "feeder system" and play a critical role in compensating for shrinkage during the solidification of castings.
Key Features:
- Blind Design:
- These sleeves are closed at the bottom, ideal for side risers or applications where metal feeding is only required from one direction.
- Prevents metal leakage and offers directional solidification.
- Highly Exothermic Composition:
- Reacts vigorously when molten metal is poured.
- Generates heat to delay solidification inside the sleeve.
- Maintains a molten reservoir for a longer duration, compensating for casting shrinkage.
- Shape: Cylindrical outer and inner profiles for predictable heat and flow behavior.
