Various specifications and models of high-performance silicon carbide rods.

Reaction-bonded silicon carbide rods exhibit excellent high-temperature flexural strength, oxidation resistance, extreme wear resistance, and do not fracture or bend under prolonged high-temperature use. They are suitable for high-temperature firing zones in roller kilns for daily ceramics, sanitary ceramics, architectural ceramics, glass, and magnetic materials. Their service life is more than 10 times that of alumina ceramic rods.

If the product length is L, the load capacity can be calculated using the following formulas: Concentrated force = surface value × 1/L, uniform load resultant = surface value × 1/L. This load capacity is applicable at 1380°C.
