Material Description

MONALITE® are "technical ceramics" made of calcium silicate in bulk density range 700 to 1000 kg/m³. It is a standard material used in the foundry industry, furnace construction and in many other applications of the process industry.

MONALITE®-M1 is a standard material for contact with liquid metal up to 850°C with low shrinkage.

MONALITE®-M1 has low shrinkage characteristics.

Advantages and Properties


non-wetting and inert to corrosion in direct contact with a number of non-ferrous metals and alloys

no reaction with lubricants and greases such as graphite or boron nitride
chemically stable in neutral and basic media
low thermal conductivity
high thermal resistance and high mechanical strength
excellent workability and processability with special tools
free from asbestos, α-quartz and iron oxide

Area of Application


Melting and casting facilities for non-ferrous metals: for transport, distribution and casting in continuous and cyclical shaping processes

Furnace construction: load-bearing housing, linings in direct metal contact and for structural parts with high thermal and/or mechanical load

Chemical and process industry: collars, seals, spacer and intermediate rings, bushes, pipe supports and runs

Melting and Casting Facilities for Non-Ferrous Metals
MONALITE® has proven itself in a wide variety of melting and casting facilities for non-ferrous metal alloys Al, Mg, Zn, Sn, Pb.

Working and Processing

The homogeneous, fine pored structure of MONALITE® is the ideal precondition for clean precision machining. The material is worked wood and metal working machines using special tools.
