Cast-in-place concrete PCOCAST BM145R, 25kg

41,30 

Medium cement refractory cast-in-place concrete (MCC) is characterised by bonding with a cement content of 5-15 %. In terms of properties and workability, they occupy an intermediate position between conventional and low cement refractories.

These mixes are valued by professionals for their good properties, which are already achieved at low temperatures (even before the plant is started up), and for their better workability compared to low-cement or no-cement systems.
