Product Information

Pli-shot Si-Bond M Al is a mullite based, cementless castable enhanced for resistance to aluminum reaction and flux attack.   It is a version of Plicast® Si-Bond M Al that has been modified for shotcrete application.   This product offers improved pumping characteristics and a longer stiffening time.  In aluminum contact and non-contact applications it provides the following benefits:

• Excellent resistance to aluminum attack and corundum growth even at elevated temperatures
• High, consistent hot strength from the aluminum melt range to high temperature >2300^oF
• Enhanced mineralogy and low porosity for improved flux and alkali resistance
• Quicker bake out than reduced cement castable options
