Customer Comments
The following are comments customers have made after doing business with Wahl Refractory Solutions:
-
June 2007 - Comment made by a Director of Maintenance and Purchasing:
"We started by finding a better material to manufacture our side blocks (Wal-Cast 50), and then later transferred the process to your facility – with good results. Working together, we have learned how to rebuild our car bottom furnace tops so they now last longer than ever, and we are still learning more as we progress. Both Wal-Cast 50 and Wal-Cast Insul 28 excel in this application."
"We now manufacture our longitudinal graphitizing furnace running blocks from Wal-Cast 50 and have had excellent success. We began testing these blocks approximately one year ago, and have not experienced a failure to date. Historically, these blocks only lasted six months! Wahl has helped us with the car bottom pedestal blocks by manufacturing several experimental pieces until the correct product was found – given the abusive nature of the loading and thermal shock. To date, these blocks have also experienced little failure, and the majority of the failures are mechanical instead of thermal.""Finally, we have designed and built an experimental ring to replace super-duty fire brick in an area that has a high rate of failure. This experiment is in the infant stages, but preliminary results indicate a success."
"Thanks again for the help Wahl has given us, and together we should be able to make many more improvements as our relationship grows.”
