03 — Applications

Every installation has a condition that decides the grade.

Start from the plant or the vehicle, not the product list. Each sector below sets out the conditions that actually break materials, and the combinations we usually recommend.

Heat treatment furnace with hot metal parts on the hearth

Sector

Heat treatment and industrial furnaces

Door seals, expansion joints and heat shields that survive daily thermal cycling.

Batch and continuous furnaces cycle between ambient and setpoint every shift. Door seals compress under pressure, expansion joints move with the shell, and shields face radiant heat from the load.

What fails here

  • 01Seals that harden and lose recovery after a few hundred cycles
  • 02Radiant heat degrading nearby cables and pneumatics
  • 03Downtime cost when a lining repair needs a full cool-down

Before quoting

Groove dimensions and compression allowance are agreed before the rope section is fixed.
