HOLLOTEX* EG RUNNER ST - The lightweight alternative to ceramic gating systems, now also available for steel casting!
HOLLOTEX EG Runner, introduced in 2009, revolutionised the construction of gating systems for hand-moulded iron castings. It eliminated the need for ceramic components and gained popularity in the European and American iron casting markets. However, it had limitations in withstanding high pouring temperatures used in steel casting.
To address this, HOLLOTEX EG Runner ST was developed with an optimized formulation and a refractory coating. Additionally, the shape of the components was modified to improve the flow distribution of molten metal.
