AL II TECHNOLOGY

WAM®AL II is a very special family of products which was specifically designed for the aluminum processing industry. This technology was developed in conjunction with the U.S. Department of Energy to specifically reduce the energy demand of molten aluminum processing equipment. Several domestic and international patents have been assigned to this technology and its derivatives.

These represent a range of products that fill all the refractory needs of the modern aluminum processor. (except for contact with bath salt in electrolysis cells.) This family of products represents a true paradigm shift in refractory technology in this application. It is now possible to employ an insulating working lining in contact with molten aluminum without the fear of damage due to corundum buildup or penetration of the refractory lining by the molten aluminum.

As a result, customers utilizing this technology have measured energy savings of up to 50% within two years of deploying the technology. In addition they have seen their maintenance costs and efforts cut in half. The WAM®AL II Family of Products, WILL improve your bottom line!
