Light Metals

Rex Materials specializes in providing metal delivery solutions for aluminum, zinc, magnesium and other light metal processors. We have developed specialty formulations in our Pyroform™, Pyrolite®, and families of materials to optimize life, insulation, thermal and non-wetting properties. We pride ourselves in putting the right material in the right application to meet and exceed your needs.

Pyroform™, a special material that gives a unique combination of thermal insulating properties and durability, is the only material that is approved by Wagstaff for use in their billet casting tables. It is also the best thermal insulating refractory you can get for your metal delivery systems, launders, filter bowls and dams. In addition to its outstanding thermal insulation properties, Pyroform™ enables you to reduce your energy bills while improving your metal quality and employee safety.

Our special moldable, Pyroform EZ-Fill™ is the preferred high temperature moldable because of its workability, extremely low thermal shrinkage, excellent strength, and non-wetting properties. Pyroform Sealer™ is a surface preparation agent for Pyroform refractory products specifically formulated to assist in the resistance of molten aluminum attack. Pyroform Extender™ is an all purpose refractory joint and patch compound that works well for repairs. Pyroform EZ-Pour™ is a non-wetting, pourable, granular material specifically designed for use as back-up insulation in irregular areas where traditional insulation cannot fit.

, an outstanding fused silica family of materials, was developed to optimize life of your refractory without compromising thermal insulation properties. and HP materials are used in trough applications with medium to high flow rates. and SA are used in ladles, pour basins, pins and spouts, nozzles, filter bowls, dams and many other applications.

is the material developed specifically for stalk, riser and dosing tube applications. The non-wetting material was formulated for high strength, long life and very low permeability.
