Overview
High-alloy irons and Ni-Resist type castings offering corrosion and heat resistance in chemical, pump and process equipment.
IMS handles alloy irons as both prime material and as arisings recovered from industrial processing. Material is sorted and segregated by grade, so it returns to the melt as a known specification rather than a mixed stream.
Properties
- Heat Resistant
- Corrosion Resistant
- Acid Resistant
Applications
- Chemical and Food Industry
- Aero Engine Parts
