SiSiC Beam
SiSiC Beam is a Reaction Bonded/Sintered Silicon Carbide (SiSiC/RBSiC) structural beam used to span and support loads within the kiln setting. Available in standard square/rectangular profile as well as H-type profile for applications needing greater bending stiffness across longer spans. Its dense, low-porosity structure delivers very low thermal expansion and high thermal conductivity, making it suited to the most demanding high-temperature, high-load firing environments.

SiSiC Beam is a Reaction Bonded/Sintered Silicon Carbide (SiSiC/RBSiC) structural beam used to span and support loads within the kiln setting. Available in standard square/rectangular profile as well as H-type profile for applications needing greater bending stiffness across longer spans. Its dense, low-porosity structure delivers very low thermal expansion and high thermal conductivity, making it suited to the most demanding high-temperature, high-load firing environments.
Used as a high-performance spanning support member within the kiln setting — bridging between posts/pillars to carry shelves and ware across wider gaps. The H-type profile is typically selected where longer unsupported spans or heavier loads require added stiffness, while the standard profile suits general-purpose spans.
