FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the advantage of 1020 density?

It is a very dense, high-strength board offering high compressive strength (≥ 17 MPa / 2465 psi), strong dimensional stability and resistance to molten aluminum, for heavy-duty industrial positions.

Is 1020 stronger than 800 density?

In compressive strength the carbon-fibre 800 grade is higher (≥ 21 MPa); 1020 is denser (63.7 lb/ft³) and is selected mainly for molten aluminum contact and heavy-duty density rather than peak strength.

Can 1020 density be machined?

Yes. Despite the high density it cuts cleanly and can be CNC-machined into custom shapes and supports.

Is 1020 suitable for furnace backup lining?

Yes. It is used as structural back-up insulation behind the refractory lining in furnaces, ladles and aluminum equipment.

What temperature can it withstand?

It is rated to 1100°C (2012°F) peak, with continuous service around 1000°C (1832°F).
