Exothermic Feeders
Conical Feeder Sleeves
Tapered exothermic sleeves of conical form that are easy to place and release in the mould.
Conical feeder sleeves are exothermic sleeves of tapered form whose section narrows upward or downward. The conical form makes it easier to place the sleeve on the pattern and to seat it in the sand during moulding.
Their exothermic structure keeps the metal inside the sleeve molten longer. Using a smaller feeder raises metal yield and lowers feeder fettling cost. A narrow contact area with the part makes knocking off and cleaning the feeder easier.
Size and taper are chosen according to part geometry and modulus. Sleeves should be stored in a dry area, as moisture reduces performance. You can consult us with the part information for correct product selection.
