MW-50 is a fiber-strengthened silicon carbide paste that can be painted (or troweled to form a thick, stucco shell if desired) to provide a hard, wear and abrasion resistant layer that is non-reactive to most molten metals. MW-50 is ideal for soft ceramic bodies such as pulp-molded parts that often degrade in service due to their soft nature. MW-50 can be built-up to most any thickness and is ideal for repairing graphite parts that have been eroded or damaged thereby saving the expense of replacement. MW-50 also stops graphite oxidation to 1000 C (1800 F) and can extend the use of graphite to these higher temperatures.

1. For thin layers, apply by brush and allow to dry for several hours below 60 C (140 F) before placing into use.

2. For thick layers, apply by troweling, spatulating or packing into place. Allow to thoroughly dry below 60 C (140 F). Thick layers require extended drying time. Place into use only after the paste has thoroughly dried throughout its thickness.

3. Harden after thoroughly drying by heating to 300 C (570 F) or above for 30 minutes or more.
