Grate and cooler plates

Grate plates carry the clinker bed and let the cooling air through it. Warped plates or worn air slots upset the air distribution, which raises clinker temperature and risks red rivers.

Choosing the grade

Typical values from the governing standards. A metallurgist confirms the grade for your duty with every quotation.

Usual choice

Heat-resistant steels

Inlet and recuperation zones.

IS 4522 · IS 519 · ASTM A297 · ASTM A447 · EN 10295

Alternative

Carbon and low-alloy steels

After-cooling zones, where heat is lower.

ASTM A27 · ASTM A148 · IS 1030 · IS 2644 · EN 10293

03

What we control

  • Chemistry firstChromium and nickel verified on the spectrometer for every heat and recorded against the casting.
  • Designed to stay straightRibs and sections arranged so the part can expand without warping.
  • Fit-up checkedSegments, hangers and interlocks checked so sets assemble on site without rework.
  • Traceable to the heatEvery casting carries its heat number, with the chemistry report to match.
