What are Customised Ceramic Components?
Customised Ceramic Components are ceramic wear-protection products made from high-alumina ceramic (typically high-alumina where specified), used to protect equipment from abrasive and impact wear. High-alumina ceramic gives hardness and chemical stability that defeat abrasion. In mining, cement, steel, power-plant ash handling, chemical processing and lithium-battery material plants, they extend equipment life and cut maintenance.
What are Customised Ceramic Components used for?
They protect process equipment from wear in mining, cement, steel, power-plant ash handling, chemical processing and lithium-battery material plants.
What material and properties make Customised Ceramic Components effective?
High-alumina ceramic gives hardness and chemical stability that defeat abrasion. These properties let Customised Ceramic Components outlast steel and rubber in abrasive service.
Why choose Customised Ceramic Components over steel or rubber alternatives?
Customised Ceramic Components beat unlined steel or rubber on abrasive duties: steel erodes in months and can contaminate product, while rubber gouges under lump impact. Customised Ceramic Components hold dimension, cut downtime and typically last 5–10× longer in mining, cement, steel, power-plant ash handling, chemical processing and lithium-battery material plants.
How do I select and specify Customised Ceramic Components?
Tell FIRSTAR your equipment, material and wear mode; we specify grade, size and backing to match.
What maintenance do Customised Ceramic Components need?
Little maintenance is needed beyond periodic inspection; because they wear slowly, planned replacement during shutdowns is usually enough. FIRSTAR can advise an inspection schedule.
