Product Information: Plicast® LWI 30 is a very high temperature insulating castable that is based on a light weight alumino-silicate aggregate system.   With a service limit of 3000°F, and good mechanical strength, it suitable for use as either backup insulating component in high temperature applications, or as a primary lining material in a less severe environment.   A low iron content makes it ideal for use in reducing combustion applications.   Conforms to ASTM classification C401 Class U.   Product advantages include:

  • 50+% alumina content
  • Low iron content <1% and low alkali content <0.5%
  • Medium density ~95 pcf
  • Good mechanical strength
  • Good volume stability and linear shrinkage
  • Low thermal conductivity
  • Good casting consistency

Available Internationally As:  Plico® Castable LW 30
