Christy Minerals Fused Silica Advanced Shell System GM2 is a high-performance, fiber-based flour blend for investment casting backup slurries. This dry blend of fused silica and high-performance additives offers increased shell build which, coupled with improved permeability, can help remove dips and minimize autoclave shell cracking.
A Pure Product of Investment Casting
Designed for investment casting backup slurries, Christy Minerals Fused Silica Advanced Shell System GM2 is a fiber-based flour that can help remove dips as well as minimize autoclave shell cracking. This dual-purpose system allows an advantageous combination of edge build and corner build, while at the same time enhancing shell permeability – thus cutting the total number of dips required while reducing positive metal scrap.
Our revolutionary furnace design helps prevent the raw silica sand from becoming contaminated during processing – resulting in a finished product that is 99.7% pure, while increasing productivity tenfold over conventional furnaces.
