Muffles and retorts
Muffles and retorts up to 47.2″ (1200 mm) O.D. can be produced using the centrifugally cast process.
For larger diameters, we may use the static cast process or we may fabricate using rolled and welded alloy plates.
Typical applications include:
Round muffles with or without internal static cast spirals
“D”-section muffles for sintering of metal pressed powders
Muffles for metal ores reduction
Muffles for the heat treatment of small metal parts
Retorts for gas generators for controlled atmosphere furnaces
Spiral retorts are used to heat treat a variety of parts such as ball bearings, coins, nuts and bolts, and fasteners.
The internal flights are cast integrally with the outer shell of the retort to eliminate hours of welding.
Common alloys for spiral retorts include HT, HU, HW and MO-RE 15®.
The carbon content of these alloys makes them stronger than their wrought-fabricated equivalents at high temperatures.
