Custom-Fit Components for Essential Insulation

Vacuum formed insulating shapes are critical in heat treatment processes for providing custom-fit insulation, mechanical protection, and efficiency in areas exposed to extreme heat.

At Magma, our VecoForm shapes are available using insulating fibres with a wide range of chemical and physical properties.

Combined with several different binder types and a comprehensive machining and post treatment service, we will identify the correct VecoForm vacuum formed shape best suited to your application.

Supplied to exact specifications

The flexibility, durability, and thermal performance of vacuum formed insulating shapes make them essential components in modern furnace design and maintenance.

Our Vecoform products provide excellent thermal insulation, resistance to thermal shock and are lightweight, easily worked and resistant to attack from corrosive chemicals, with the exception of hydrofluoric acid, phosphoric acid and concentrated alkalis.

VecoForm vacuum formed insulating shapes can be supplied to the exact specification that is demanded for your application. Operating at temperatures up to 1700 °C.

Typical applications include roller blocks, flue liners, burner blocks, transfer launders, gasket shapes, boiler components, starter tubes, flue liners, launders and tundishes.
