Magnesia carbon Product Applications

The following sketches show typical application areas of ISCARBON bricks in the different aggregates of the steel making process.

The PDF table below maps some of ISCO standard grades to these application areas and shows a typical lining concept.

In reality, every steel plant has special parameters to consider, and it is in the discussion of the steel plant technicians with our refractory experts, where the ideal lining concept is developed.
