EX1606 Silicon Carbide Crucible – High Strength & Long Life
The EX1606 Silicon Carbide Crucible from Mechelec is engineered for high-performance melting applications. Built for refiners, jewellery manufacturers, and casting workshops, this crucible delivers exceptional durability, fast heating, and consistent melting behaviour.
Made from carbon-bonded silicon carbide, EX1606 provides superior heat conductivity. It reaches melting temperatures quickly and maintains uniform heat distribution. As a result, technicians achieve smoother melts, reduced energy consumption, and more reliable output. The crucible’s dense structure also resists erosion and chemical wear, even during continuous high-temperature cycles.
Because of its strong thermal shock resistance, EX1606 performs well in both gas-fired and induction furnaces. Its rigid body maintains shape under thermal stress, helping prevent cracking and breakage. This improves operational safety and reduces downtime in busy production environments.
The EX Series is known for long service life, and EX1606 is no exception. Its advanced composition slows oxidation, minimises metal contamination, and supports clean, repeatable melting cycles. Whether you’re processing gold, silver, brass, or non-ferrous alloys, this crucible ensures consistent quality.
Mechelec supplies genuine EX crucibles to refineries, workshops, and laboratories across the UAE. Our team can recommend the correct size, furnace compatibility, and handling best practices to maximise crucible lifespan.
Choose EX1606 Silicon Carbide Crucible for stable melts, high efficiency, and reliable performance.
