  • THERVEK AR
    Casting Dry gunning Trowelling

    The THERVEK AR Series is AGC Plibrico’s line of acid-resistant castables.

    • AR (Acid‑resistant) denotes resistance to acidic environments. The product is a dry powder blend of refractory aggregates and special binders.
    • By optimizing the binder system for each application, the AR series provides excellent resistance to acidic attack.

    Main applications

    • Stacks / chimneys
    • Flue ducts
  • THERVEK ABR
    Free-flow Casting Vibration Casting Dry gunning

    AGC Plibrico’s abrasion‑resistant castable for catalyst‑worn areas of FCC units.

    • It is supplied as a dry powder blend of refractory aggregates and special binders.
    • The required strength can be achieved within 48 hours at ambient temperature.

    Main applications

    • Various industrial kilns and furnaces
  • THERVEK CYMIX
    Ramming Hand Pack

    AGC Plibrico’s abrasion-resistant plastic refractory for catalyst wear areas in FCC units.

    • It is supplied as a dry powder blend of refractory aggregates and special binders.
    • After adding water and mixing in a mixer, the material is installed by ramming with an air rammer. By increasing the mixing water, CYMIX can also be applied by hand packing.
    • The required strength is achieved within 24 hours at ambient temperature, and subsequent firing develops extremely high abrasion resistance.

    Main applications

    • Various industrial kilns and furnaces
    • High‑wear areas
  • THERVEK PX-BD
    Trowelling Gunning Ramming

    High‑strength joint filling and bonding material

    • A paste‑type product composed of refractory aggregates and a water‑glass binder, supplied in vinyl cartridges, caulking tubes, or pails.
    • When heated above 500°C, chemical bonding occurs and the material develops high strength (heat‑curing).

    Main applications

    • Joint filling
    • Repair bonding
    • Substrate preparation prior to patch repairs
  • THERVEK PX-CO
    Trowelling Gunning Ramming

    AGC Plibrico’s coating refractory material

    • It is supplied as a dry powder blend of refractory aggregates and special binders.
    • After adding water or a designated liquid and mixing in a mixer, the material is applied to furnace linings or steel surfaces using a trowel or brush.

    Main applications

    • Abrasion‑resistant coating for refractory linings
  • THERVEK PX-IJ
    Ramming

    AGC Plibrico’s ramming refractory material

    • A dry powder product composed of refractory aggregates and a water‑glass binder.
    • After adding water and mixing in a mixer, the material is installed by ramming. Hot ramming installation is also possible.

    Main applications

    • Blast furnace ramming (hot‑spot repair)
  • THERVEK PX-DM
    Trowelling

    AGC Plibrico air-hardening mortar

    • A joint mortar for alumina and alumina‑silica refractory bricks, supplied as a dry powder blend of refractory aggregates and a water‑glass binder.
    • After adding water and mixing in a mixer, the material is applied by trowelling.

    Main applications

    • Mortar for refractory brick joints
