Steel & Metallurgy
Reliable Refractory Bricks Designed for Steel Applications
The steel and metallurgy sectors need materials that can endure the highest temperatures, be resistant to chemical corrosion, and bear the hardest mechanical stresses.
The blends of our high alumina bricks and refractory fire bricks at Horizon Refractories come with such properties and are able to maintain their performance in steel making applications.
Since the time of blast furnace and ladle, our refractory blocks and fire clay bricks are used in reliable lining performance and service life.
Being reliable manufacturers of refractory bricks in India, we are committed to produce each brick in a manner that it is resistant to slag attack, oxidation and thermal fatigue.
Our solutions assist in efficient processing of steel, downtime reduction and uniformity in the quality of products in metallurgical activities worldwide.
Steel & Metallurgy The industry requires highly specialized high-temperature materials because it deals with extreme conditions like temperatures of more than 1000°C, highly abrasive media, molten metals, acids, alkalis, and highly corrosive environments. Horizon Refractories manufacture and supply a range of acid-proof and refractory products for the requirement of Steel, Foundry, Rolling mills, Ferroalloy industries, and many other metallurgical applications.
Our product list covers the acid proof brick, refractory bricks, Castables, Mortars, and other specialized refractory products to cater to extreme temperature and high corrosive resistance requirements.
Our refractory materials provide high mechanical strength, low thermal conductivity and resistance to heavy wear, tear and heavy thermal load.
They are designed for service in all types of furnaces (like blast furnace, LD converter, EAF, etc.) where the direct contact with hot gases, molten steel or nonferrous metal is expected and are ideal for applications such as, ladles, reheating furnace, coke oven, chimneypot, soaking pit, cement plants, glass industry, kiln, etc.
We provide best quality materials with prompt delivery for maximum performance and extended service life. The products we offer undergo strict quality control procedures to maintain its international standard. Our refractory bricks are developed through modern technology from premium quality raw materials and are suitable to work under various high temperatures and acidic atmosphere.
