Application

Dikaflex is used in moulding and core shop, especially in steel and iron casting as well as in non-ferrous metal casting. Dikaflex sealing cords are used to seal joints of moulds and cores from all kind of moulding materials. Further applications are the sealing of moulds and also lid pans in foundries and steel mills. 

Properties

Dikaflex does not harden. Due to the high temperature of the metal or the moulds, Dikaflex dries and disintegrates completely and leaves no harmful residues in the sand.

Processing

Dikaflex sealing cords are placed according to the size of the dividing joint. Breakthrough of the liquid metal, and thus leakage of the mould or penetration of the metal into the core air, is prevented. 

Storage

Store in cool, but frost-free, original packaging. Shelf life at least 1 year.
