Filter by
installation method
  • THERVEK HR
    Gunning

    A clay-bonded plastic refractory for gunning applications, offering excellent resistance to thermal spalling.

    • It is supplied in a plastic, granulated form specifically for gunning applications.
    • When used with our proprietary HYRATE unit, it enables plastic refractory gunning using the HYRATE installation method.

    Main applications

    • High-temperature furnaces
    • Incinerators
    • Various industrial kilns and furnaces
  • THERVEK AD
    Dry gunning

    A low cement castable for dry gunning applications that improves installation efficiency.

    • This product is supplied as a dry powder blend of carefully selected refractory aggregates, ultra-fine raw materials, and a reduced amount of alumina cement.
    • In operation, the dry mix is fed from the PLIMATE II material feeder and conveyed by compressed air to the Need Gun gunning machine, where water is added at the nozzle and the material is applied to the furnace wall. The PLIMATE II unit is equipped with a dosing system for accurate feeding of the powder binder.
    • Thanks to the action of ultra‑fine particles, the required strength can be achieved within 24 hours at ambient temperature.

    Main applications

    • Various industrial kilns and furnaces
    • Incinerators
    • Boilers
  • THERVEK PTG
    Wet gunning

    Improves installation efficiency through a wet-gunning method using low cement castables.

    • This product is supplied as a dry powder blend of carefully selected refractory aggregates, ultra-fine raw materials, and a reduced amount of alumina cement.
    • Wet gunning involves pumping the mixed castable refractory and spraying it from the nozzle by supplying compressed air and an accelerator.
    • Thanks to the action of ultra‑fine particles, the required strength can be achieved within 24 hours at ambient temperature.

    Main applications

    • Various industrial kilns and furnaces
    • Incinerators
    • Boilers
  • THERVEK G
    Dry gunning

    Dry gunning material with excellent gunning performance and versatility.

    • Offers excellent adhesion with minimal rebound loss.
    • Using a gunning machine such as a Need Gun, the dry powder is conveyed by compressed air and mixed with water at the nozzle before being applied to the furnace wall.
    • Dry gunning requires no formwork or premixing, providing significantly higher installation efficiency than casting.

    Main applications

    • Various industrial kilns and furnaces
    • Incinerator combustion chambers
  • 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 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
