Silicon Carbide Nozzle, SiC Nozzle
Silicon carbide (SiC) is a lightweight ceramic material with high strength performance compared to diamond. It has excellent thermal conductivity, low thermal expansion, and great corrosion resistance. Silicon carbide is suitable for applications requiring good corrosion resistance and wears resistance. Therefore, it can be used in a variety of applications, including nozzles, shot blasting, and cyclone separator assemblies. Edgetech provides silicon carbide nozzle per drawings.
