DIEDRESS - 34

Product

Diedress – 34 is water based refractory cum insulating coating. Special binding property of coating for M.S. Tools/ accessories and insulating property of coating influence easy striping and excellent finish over Ingots/aluminium casting.

Function

Generally M.S. Tools / accessories are used for handling Molten Aluminium. Mild Steel increases the contamination of Iron into Liquid Aluminium. Diedress-34 acts as a barrier between liquid aluminium and Mild steel .Diedress-34 prevents the contamination of Iron improves the surface finish of ingots/Aluminium castings.

Instruction

  • Dilute the Diedress – 34 @ 1:2 (Coating: water). Mix it thoroughly
  • Clean the Tools i.e. should be free from Rust, Grease etc.
  • Pre-heat the tools at a Temp.100ºC - 120ºC Apply the coating by dipping /spraying Application.
  • Pre-heat the coated tools at a Temp. 130ºC ± 10ºC to remove the moisture content.

Application

Dilute the coating with soft water in the ratio 1:3(Product : Water) mix uniformly and apply coating by spraying. The application of the coating is varies from very thin, where maximum chilling is required and thick on runners, feeders, thin cast sections, etc.

Spray the diluted coating on to the die and core faces using a good atomizing gun. The die temperature should be between 120 and 200ºC so that the spray hits and dries quickly without running. Then re-heat the die to normal working temperature before casting metal.

Advantages

  • Eliminates contamination of Iron.
  • Increases the life of Tools.
  • Improves the finishing of casting/ Ingots.
  • Economical.
  • Highly insulating.
