Ceramic Firber Shapes
KSG Ceramic Fiber Shapes are available in a wide variety of shape configurations. These shapes are processed from alumina silica fibers for applications at temperature up to 1400°C . To match Ceramic Fiber Special Shapes to specific applications, material compositions can be varied with different fillers and chemicals to produce special characteristics such as high strength, density and molten metal non-wetability. These shapes are manufactured based on customer drawing / Tailor made.
