Plastic sealing cords are cold-extruded seals made of high-quality, fiber-free ceramic, used in continuous steel casting.

Plastic sealing cords offer an alternative to conventional seals made of paper or textiles: due to their water solubility, contamination in mechanical elements and water spray nozzles can be prevented.

Further properties of plastic sealing cords include:

  • Flexibility
  • Easy handling and installation
  • High compressive strength
  • Good sealing properties
  • Water-soluble (no contamination of the cooling water)
  • Standard dimension: dia 20 mm
  • Other dimensions available on request
