Protective Ceramic Sheath to Shield

Known for their high thermal conductivity, Metamics are recommended for use in the primary production of Superalloys and special steels in vacuum.

Widely used in the vacuum melting and investment casting industry, our ceramic composite Metamic pyrometer and thermocouple sheaths are designed for optimal compatibility with superalloys without compromising cleanliness.

Able to be used in temperatures up to 1900°C

Metamic Pyrometer Sheaths can be used in temperatures up to 1900°C and, since no inner sheath is required, give rapid temperature response with each dip immersion.

Often used to calibrate or double-check the readings off a semi-continuous Radiation Pyrometer, they can be used multiple times, and depending on furnace practices, this can be upwards of 40 times, whilst remaining fully stable and suffering no contaminant issues to the melt.

A range of standard sizes are available up to a maximum length of 300mm.
