HT Sand Comparisons

HT-2: Sintered Ceramic Sand

Sourced from a new, highly reliable supplier, HT-2 offers enhanced consistency and performance, tailored to meet the stringent requirements of modern foundries.

  • Sintered Ceramic Sand (SCS) is a synthetic mullite sand for foundries, identical to Ceramic Foundry Sand.
  • It suits all pour temperatures and binder systems, making it ideal for facing, cores, full molding systems, and additive manufacturing.
  • Its high durability allows indefinite reuse, making it a cost-effective and sustainable alternative to traditional sand.
  • Available in custom mesh sizes, including 20/40, 30/50, and 50/100.
  • It is also well-suited for 3D printing in foundry applications

HT-2 vs. HT-3: Choosing the Right Material

Hawthorn Industries offers two premium ceramic foundry materials HT-2 and HT-3 each designed for high thermal resistance and casting precision.

  • HT-2 is ideal for high-precision molds requiring enhanced thermal stability.
  • HT-3 provides greater flowability and optimized particle distribution for increased efficiency.
