Cast Ladle Paste LTB-1

Cast Ladle Paste LTB-1 is a premium oil-based refractory and insulating coating designed for ladles and molten aluminium handling equipment. Its ready-to-use formulation provides excellent thermal insulation, minimizes heat loss during metal transfer, and prevents metal adhesion to ladle surfaces. The coating forms a durable protective layer that enhances ladle life, reduces maintenance requirements, and improves operational efficiency.

Recommended Usage

  1. Clean the ladle surface thoroughly and remove loose deposits, slag, or old coating residues.
  2. Stir the paste well before application to achieve a uniform consistency.
  3. Apply evenly using a brush on the required surfaces.
  4. Build the coating layer to the desired thickness based on insulation requirements.
  5. Allow adequate air drying or heated drying before exposure to molten metal.
  6. Inspect coating condition regularly and perform touch-ups in high-wear areas.
  7. Reapply as needed to maintain optimum insulation and non-wetting performance.

Recommended for transfer ladles and molten aluminium handling systems requiring superior insulation, reduced heat loss, improved ladle life, and enhanced operational efficiency.
