Thermite
Reade offers Pure Thermit®. This mixture consists of Iron (III) Oxide and Aluminum powder mixture in stoichiometric ratios to yield the maximum reaction temperature in a very short period. It is used for applications of heat shock testing. The particle size distribution of the mixture is between – 800 microns + 75 microns and the bulk of the material (75%) falls in the 425 to 150-micron range.
Reade also offers custom thermit mixes that can consist of Carbon, Manganese, and Silicon with varying micro-alloy contents depending on the hardness the customer requires.
