Chromite sand originating from South Africa is a benchmark product in the global foundry industry. it is a naturally occurring spinel consisting primarily of the oxides of chrome and iron

Chromite sand is a special refractory sand used in metal casting, primarily for steel and high-alloy iron castings. It is valued for its unique combination of properties that address challenges found in traditional silica sand, such as burn-on defects and high thermal expansion.

 The use of Chromite Flour 325 mesh as a foundry coating (refractory coating) is a highly specialized and critical application, primarily in the production of high-quality steel and manganese steel castings.

chromite sand reduces cleaning and finishing costs, improves casting yield, and contributes to producing a superior, defect-free hammer ready for heat treatment and service.

chromite flour has several uses, its main application is unquestionably as the critical ingredient in refractory coatings for foundry molds and cores, where it is essential for producing high-quality, complex, and clean steel castings.
