Breaker Core — Nexus Technologies, Rajkot

Breaker Core

A vital accessory for riser sleeve systems, engineered to simplify riser removal post-solidification. It significantly improves overall casting yield while maximizing clean-up efficiency.

Key Features

  • Simplified Riser Removal: Establishes a precise, controlled separation zone between the casting and the riser, ensuring a clean break post-solidification without risking damage to the final part.
  • Optimized Casting Yield: Maximizes the volume of molten metal directed into the casting by minimizing waste trapped in the discarded riser stub.
  • Superior Junction Finish: Significantly cuts down on post-casting grinding and surface cleaning by leaving virtually no flash or riser remnants behind.

Key Advantages

✓ Decreased Equipment Wear✓ Part Preservation✓ Optimized Finishing✓ High Repeatability
COREFIX — Core Adhesive — Nexus Technologies, Rajkot

COREFIX — Core Adhesive

A high-performance, self-setting, medium-viscosity adhesive engineered for secure cold-to-cold bonding, with universal compatibility across cold box, CO2, oil, and resin-bonded molds and cores.

Key Features

  • Application: Apply the paste evenly to both joint faces, then press the components firmly together.
  • Curing Time: Thanks to its superior air-setting properties, NEXUS COREFIX securely sets in just 5 to 15 minutes.
  • Accelerated Setting: To reduce setting time, allow the paste to become slightly tacky on the surfaces before pressing the joints together.

Key Advantages

✓ Maximum Strength✓ Convenient Packaging
APC Powder — Nexus Technologies, Rajkot

APC Powder

APC Powder is a hot topping compound available in insulating and exothermic types of anti-piping compounds.

Key Features

  • Instant Activation: Expands and ignites immediately upon contact with liquid metal to form a highly porous, insulating crust.
  • Thermal Retention: Drastically minimizes radiant heat loss, significantly prolonging the cooling rate.
  • Maximized Efficiency: Keeps the metal in a liquid state longer, ensuring the riser feeds the casting with maximum efficiency.

Key Advantages

✓ Prolonged Heat Retention✓ Defect Elimination
Aluminium Shots — Nexus Technologies, Rajkot

Aluminium Shots

Adding aluminium shots to molten metal helps eliminate unwanted gases, improving the density and overall mechanical strength of the final cast components.

Key Features

  • Rapid Deoxidation: Reacts instantly with dissolved oxygen in molten steel and metal baths, forming an aluminium oxide slag that floats to the surface for effortless removal.
  • Advanced Degassing: Actively pulls out trapped gases, significantly reducing porosity and gas-related defects in both aluminium and steel castings.

Key Advantages

✓ Improved Density✓ Higher Strength✓ Reduced Porosity✓ Effective Degassing
Aluminium Paint / Coat — Nexus Technologies, Rajkot

Aluminium Paint / Coat

Special paint for foundries that can handle high heat, protecting mold and metal surfaces from corrosion.

Key Advantages

✓ High-Heat Resistant✓ Corrosion Protection

Frequently Asked Questions

What foundry consumables does Nexus Technologies manufacture?+

We manufacture exothermic riser sleeves, insulating riser sleeves, exothermic and insulating boards, hot tops, direct pour filter sleeves, ladle pads, breaker cores, core adhesive, APC powder, aluminium shots and aluminium coatings, and supply imported perlite, graphite and ceramic foam filters.

What is a breaker core used for?+

A breaker core is placed at the base of a riser to create a narrow neck between the riser and the casting, so the riser can be knocked off cleanly after casting with far less cutting and grinding.

Do you supply foundries outside Rajkot and Gujarat?+

Yes. We supply foundries across India and export internationally. Contact us with your requirements for pricing and delivery.
