Rath Incorporated offers a broad line of refractory materials for ceramic firing and sintering processes up to 1800°C. Rath Incorporated's refractories are designed to optimize resistance to thermal shock and sagging, the two most common problems in high temperature processes. The Rath Incorporated line includes dense refractories, insulating refractories, and fiber based insulation. Applications include kiln linings, kiln cars, firing setters, and pusher plates.
