Core Paste

A low friction assembly aid containing high sliding characteristic, energetic mixture, specifically formulated for pre-treatment of components, which operates continuously at high temperature.

Features

• High temperature lubrication specially formulated for continuous sliding components
• Clean surface and rub the paste in thinly and evenly with a nonmetallic brush.
• Frequency of application to be decided on the basis of effective lubrication.

Alucover is a very efficient powder flux for covering & refining Aluminium & its alloys. Its exothermic reaction ensures efficient removal of inclusions & formation of a red hot glowing powdery dross which can be easily skimmed.

Application

• First the crucible is heated to redness
• Then half of the charge is added with continued heating.
• When the charge becomes sluggish half quantity of total Alucover is sprinkled on it.
• The Alucover melt & forms a liquid protective cover on the melting charge.
• The balance of the charge is slowly & continuously added without disturbing the liquid cover.
• When entire charge melts & achives the required temperature, balance half of Alucover is added & stirred well in to melt. The resultant red glowing powdery dross is skimmed & the metal is ready for further operations.

Advantages

• Specially formulated to give exceptionally red glowing & powdery dross. Thus skimming of dross is easy & clean with minimum metal loss in the dross.
• Protects the metal from oxidation during melting.
• Clean the melt & absorbs nonmetallic impurities.
• Lower application percentage based on charge composition.
• 0.5 to 1.0% based on charge
• Applicable to all aluminium alloys except Al-Mg alloys.

• Addition : 0.5 to 1% Grades : Alucover - 1 Alucover - 1 F.
• Packing : 25kg moisture proof HDPE poly lines bags.
• Storage : Store in a cool & dry place.
• Shelf Life : Six months from the date of manufacture
