Abstract

A mould 1 for a continuous casting operation has mounted therein a feeder head 3 formed at least at its inner surface of heat-insulating refractory material. The feeder head 3 may fit snugly to the inside of the mould 1 or may be <PICT:1110553/C3/1> spaced therefrom to provide a gap 5 through which a lubricant, e.g. rape seed oil, may flow from orifices 2. At the end of the casting operation the level of the molten metal is raised into the feeder head 3 and an exothermic anti-piping compound may be added to prevent piping. Where lubricant orifices 2 are not provided a slagging agent is applied to the surface of the molten metal. The feeder head may be formed of a composition which contains an ingredient, e.g. aluminium, which is ignited at the temperature of the molten metal and burns exothermically to leave a shape-retaining heat-insulating refractory material. A suitable heat-insulating material is:- .Silica flour .. ...82% by weight .Powdered phenolformal-. .dehyde resin ...7.5% by weight .Asbestos .. ...2% by weight .Wood flour .. ...8% by weight .Fibre glass .. ...0.5% by weight The mould may be provided with a permanent lubricant dressing, e.g. of graphite.
