Grades: Enertek (energy efficient, melting and holding), Duratek (extended life in specific applications), Diamant Special (low temperature, chemical resistance), Diamant Universal (high temperature incl. copper alloys) and Diamant Top (high-frequency / high-power induction). We select the grade together according to furnace type and metal.

We can carry out crucible replacement, stand and installation. Our furnaces are designed to accept crucibles of different makes; send us your current crucible dimensions and we will identify the equivalent model together.

Dimensions are taken from the manufacturer catalogue (Foseco – Crucibles for Non-Ferrous Applications); normal manufacturing tolerances apply. The catalogue size value indicates approximate capacity. The image is a representative cross-section of the crucible shape.
