Kast-O-Lite 30 LI G is a lightweight, insulating Hand Castable (also gunnable) castable rated to 3000°F. It has great insulating qualities similar to the Kast-O-Lite LI 30 PLUS however, it has a higher lime content. This means KOL-Li-30G sets up/hardens quicker (10 minute work time) compared to Kast-O-Lite 30 LI Plus' (30 minute work time).
Features:
Common Applications:
KOL-30, like most insulating castables, mixes with water and is install-ready quickly after only 60 seconds of mixing time.
Versatile. You can make formed castings, apply it freehand or with a trowel, or you can apply it over stiffened refractory wool (ie; Kaowool) to impart a durable protective layer.
If covering refractory wool with KOL, 'rigidize' the wool first to prevent its compression and simplify the application.
RIGIDIZER is a silica spray resembling water that permanently stiffens wool once its been sprayed and 'fired'. (Tip - orderfreeze-proof' rigidizer if there is a risk of freezing during storage or transport).
KastOLite 30 LI G + Castable is about 50% less dense than 'DENSE' castables like KS-4V dense castable which is popular for Pizza Ovens and Ribbon Burners.
Kast O Lite 30 Li G is typically sold in 55 lb bags or 50 lb Pails.
Tip:
When applying directly to pre-rigidized wool with by hand, I prefer a little extra water so the castable is incorporated with the surface wool fibers and bonds well mechanically.
If you want to add a skin of flux resistance, a thin topcoat of alien skin adds strength and flux resistance. Like mortar, it bonds to previous castings, making it versatile for repair projects too.
Once cured, Kast-O-Lite can be coated withITC 100 HT to optimize forge efficiency, or with ITC 296A for improved flux resistance.
