Core Mixtures

Core Mixtures Points : Core Mixtures, foundry Component is mixed to suit requirements of cores as resolute by alloy being cost with its temperature. The process of making core and some special necessities of the core depends upon the size and shape of casting. Easy core-sand mix usually used 1% sand 1% core oil, 1% cereal and 2.2 to 6.0 % water. The further combination for coring purpose are follow : 1) For little and average steel castings: Silica sand - 1000 Kg
Silica flour - 70 Kg
