Furnace Filling Funnels

Overview

Cast Iron Filling Funnels

These filling funnels are secured atop certain dosing furnaces used in high-pressure die casting, but can also be implemented in most holding-furnace applications. Pyrotek understands that furnace operators need filling funnels that deliver maximum service life and safety. Our cast iron filling funnels are designed and built with exterior reinforcement ribs, which are positioned for maximum resistance against cracking and thermal stress. They are manufactured with the right attachments, too, giving furnace operators the ability to use their existing lids. To ensure long life and maximum performance, Pyrotek also provides high-quality customer service with local support and process expertise.

Castable Refractory Option

Additionally, Pyrotek offers a castable refractory option. We can provide both the steelwork and backup insulation for this type of funnel.

*Newer dosing furnaces are equipped with cast iron upper fill funnels. Pyrotek also has substitutes for these components.
