Special products

The Insulcon Group has a wide range of Insulmicanite® products. Insulmicanite® products are specifically developed for the use as thermal, electrical and even mechanical insulation in induction furnaces. Insulmicanite® products are placed between the coil and the refractories in induction furnaces:

• They protect the coil from mechanical stresses resulting from the expansion and movement of the crucible
• They improve electrical insulation during sintering
• They can be used to adjust the sintering depth and to reduce heat losses from the furnace
• They reduce the risk of perforation when the crucible wears or cracks
• They can be used in the electronic detection of defects in the crucible
• They facilitate the removal of a worn crucible.

Insulmicanite® products are available in sheets or on a roll, without a backing or with glass fiber backing on one or both sides, with body soluble fiber to improve thermal insulation and absorb expansion, etc.
