MNC Lower Exchange Nozzle
MNC Lower Exchange Nozzle is the movable exchangeable lower refractory part matched with Interstop MNC tundish quick-change system for continuous casting production lines. It adopts composite layered structure: high-purity stabilized zirconia inner runner insert + high-density alumina-carbon outer body. We supply two forming processes (isostatic pressing & integral casting) and multiple zirconia content grades.
Products Description

MNC full name stands for Interstop fast tundish nozzle replacement mechanism. MNC Lower Exchange Nozzle is the sliding movable lower nozzle component of the whole MNC system, matched with fixed MNC upper nozzle installed at tundish bottom. It forms seamless flat sealing contact surface with upper nozzle after hydraulic pushing, realizing stable molten steel metering and online rapid replacement without interrupting casting process

Common Usage Problems & Matching Solutions
Seam steel leakage between upper and lower nozzle contact surface
Solution: Select isostatic pressing product with precision grinding flat surface, check installation clamping force of MNC sliding mechanism.
Serious inner hole clogging, frequent flow reduction
Solution: Upgrade to 95% high-purity zirconia insert nozzle, optimize tundish argon blowing system synchronously.
Nozzle outer body crack after multiple replacement cycles
Solution: Adopt isostatic press craft with better thermal shock resistance, avoid violent cold water flushing during nozzle changing.
Fast inner hole enlargement leading to unstable casting speed
Solution: Increase zirconia content grade from Zr80 to Zr85/Zr95 to strengthen anti-scouring performance.
