Insulating Open Sleeves

Typical Benefits:
  • Cleaner and safer than exothermic sleeves — no fumes or reaction residue.
  • Reduces metal waste by improving riser yield.
  • Ideal for environmentally conscious foundries.
  • Provides sufficient feeding time for small to medium castings.
  • Easy riser knock-off if used with a necked-down base.

Insulating Open Sleeves ideal for clean, efficient feeding in iron castings where heat retention (not generation) is needed

Key Features:
  • Open-Top Configuration
    • Molten metal enters from the top during pouring.
    • Simple mold setup — often used in vertical or flask riser applications.
    • Helps improve casting integrity without compromising mold layout.
  • Insulating Material (Non-Exothermic):
    • Composed of low thermal conductivity refractory materials
    • Retains heat in the riser metal without any combustion or fume generation.
    • Filter inserts for slag control
  • Optional Add-ons:
    • Hot-topping covers/lids
    • Collars or height extenders
    • Filter inserts for slag control
