BAL Series are special-purpose alumina insulating firebricks developed using ISOLITE’s own proprietary technology.
Manufactured from alumina hollow particles, 99% Al₂O₃ content, and has the following properties:
① High corrosion resistance ② High spalling resistance
Bright Annealing, Powder Metallurgy Sintering, Brazing, Semiconductor Sintering and Hydrogen Atmosphere Heat Treating Furnaces
BAL-99 : Standard
BAL-99M : Increased mechanical strength
BAL-LS : Minimal impurity content to minimize the presence of impurities in the furnace during use in high temperatures and highly reduced atmospheres.
