Overbraided ceramic rope type ECW-O
The rope with symbol ECW-O is a very popular sealing used in many branches of industry. In is built from core of needled mat overbraided with ceramic yarn without reinforcement. In this way, we obtained a very flexible rope with the temperature of use up to 650°C.
ECW-O is resting sealing, ideal to be used in furnaces, flaps, hatches, cleanout openings and expansion gaps. Applied e.g. in power plants (brickwork), in cokemaking (coke batteries), founding (forms sealing), ceramic industry (ceramic carts and furnaces) and municipal economy (coal furnaces).
