A successful Forging operation requires specialized, durable furnace components. URC produces Furnace Precast and Fiber Products for the Forging Industry that are capable of tackling a number of applications and environments. When it comes to the Forging process, strict thermal and mechanical performance is required. Our forge furnace hearth shapes are engineered to perform well under difficult conditions and provide an excellent service life. Shapes around the perimeter of the furnace typically see some of the toughest conditions. The Furnace Precast Sills, Jambs and Lintels from REFSOURCE are capable of withstanding extreme temperature variations and mechanical abuse. Traditional poured or bricked furnace walls and hearths have many joints that will eventually cause failure, but our Precast Walls and Hearth Blocks contain very few joints and offer superior performance and service life.

$The Annealing Process requires strictly-controlled thermal and mechanical performance from the refractories that make up the furnaces and bases. REFSOURCE has a successful record of supplying time-saving, performance-enhancing modular shapes that excel in even the toughest Annealing environments.

$The mechanical and thermal abuse of furnace perimeter shapes make it one of the toughest refractory applications in the world. Rarely do Precast Shapes see such elevated hot-face temperatures, coupled with ambient cold face temperatures. The thermal gradients seen by Sills, Jambs and Lintels put extreme stress on the refractory. In addition to volume stable materials, these pieces often need to stand up to mechanical abuse from product or mobile equipment. REFSOURCE has an impressive arsenal of Precast Sills, Jambs and Lintels and additional products that excel in such tough applications.

$Bricked Furnace Hearths contain multiple joints that can fill with sand, scale or other debris when cold, which then expand when the furnace is operational again. Poured Furnace Hearths often have different ceramic characteristics throughout due to drying from only one side (the hot face). Thermal and mechanical abuse will take its toll on all Furnace Hearths, ultimately causing failure. Precast Hearths have the benefits of exponentially fewer joints, coupled with a complete and controlled dry out. The properties of a Precast Furnace Hearth are superior to those either poured or bricked.
