With over 50 combined years of Precast Refractory experience, URC has crafted a variety of Precast Products that meet and exceed the expectations of the Ferrous Metals Industry. To contain heat in ladles and soaking pits, our Ladle and Soaking Pit Covers provide superior insulation and can be custom designed for both new and retrofit applications. Breast Blocks, Tap Holes and Sleeves are composed of high-quality materials that are able to withstand a demanding environment of extreme heat, aggressive chemistry and mechanical turbulence. Despite their small size, Burner Blocks, Well Blocks and Purge Plugs are manufactured for critical tolerances from top grade materials. Tackling one of the toughest refractory applications in the industry, our EAF and DC Deltas are able to withstand significant chemical, thermal and mechanical abuse. At the base of any steelmaking operation, Iron and Steel Ladle Bottoms offer excellent thermal and mechanical performance to meet your needs. Our Molten Metal Runners and Troughs are created with materials with outstanding temperature and abrasion resistance to produce a long service life. Critical to any continuous casting application, Tundish Linings, Furniture and Covers are manufactured to fulfill the most demanding requirements.
