CERAMIC PARTS
- TECHNICAL OVERVIEW |
Maximum Life.
Sustained Efficiency.
Reduced carbon emissions
 
Slurrytech Ceramax
parts are manufactured from Silicon Carbide
(NSC) and are
characterized by excellent wear properties, good
chemical resistance, good temperature
and
impact resistance.
NSC allows us to offer
our clients pump components as a
monolithic casting for surface
uniformity and reduced turbulence.
Slurrytech
NSC
parts
offer an excellent combination of
toughness and hardness that is required
in solids and slurry pumping
applications. A ceramic without this
combination will fail prematurely under
fracture fatigue or general erosion.
Slurrytech NSC
Ceramic
is one of the most robust
ceramic materials available today, it achieves outstanding
performance in a range of different duty conditions

Cost Effectiveness
NSC parts are exceptionally cost effect
against OEM A05, A12 and A61 alloys, and
also against Sintered, Siliconised and Alumina Oxide competitor products.
A typical cost analysis for correct
application will see between 2 to 6
times wear life at only 1.5 to 2.0 times
the capital cost. Against other ceramics
the cost advantages are significant.
