CERAFLUX GR-540

Granulated Low To Medium Temperature Exothermic Drossing Flux For Aluminium And Aluminium Alloys

Product

CERAFLUX GR-540 is a flux with a low reacting temperature for use on all sodium tolerant Aluminium Alloys.

CERAFLUX GR-540 is most suited for use in the central melting furnaces, transport ladles andwill aid in keeping furnace walls free of corundum build-up.

Purpose

CERAFLUX GR-540 can be used on medium to low metal temperatures in sand, die and High pressure die casting foundries. It produces dry ash-like dross that is easily separated from the molten metal. Skimming is thus facilitated and metal loss due to aluminium entrapment in the dross is reduced.

CERAFLUX GR-540 is scattered on the surface of the molten metal or can be applied by using Flux injection machine at a rate of 0.05 - 0.15% of the metal weight. The flux is then rabbled gently into the melt until the exothermic reaction develops. The powdery dross is either pushed aside or preferably removed before taking the ladles of metal for die casting.

Application Temperature: 730-760°C

Benefits

CERAFLUX GR-540 specially developed to be environmentally friendly.

  • It is dust free in use and emits low fume during application
  • Granulated fluxes can be used at reduced application rates compared to powder fluxes.
  • Granular ensuring uniform chemical composition through-out flux.
  • 2-4 mm designed for flux injection machine.

Standard Packing : 25kg polyethylene lined paper bag

Precaution : Flux Is Hygroscopic In Nature So Store It In Dry Atmosphere.

Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) is Available on Request
