Funnel increases life of shot sleeve by interrupting free-fall drop of molten
aluminum, minimizing washout below pour hole.
Eliminates costly spillage - assuring full amount of aluminum to fill the cavity,
thereby reducing scrap percentage.
Excellent welding capabilities - steel casting - not cast iron.
Excellent for auto-ladle equipment.
Can be positioned directly over the pour spout. Maximum clearance required to
clear platen position 3/8" - clamp directly over the pour hole.
3" diameter outside throat dimension allows for further machining to suit
size of pour hole.
Funnel can be assembled on shot sleeve without requiring removal of shot
sleeve. Assembly time - approximately 5 to 10-minute maximum.
