What Is Your Boiler Grate Bar Application?

The purpose of a boiler grate bar is to help and support the solid fuel in the heater. For burning, the grate bars can accept air into the solid fuel. They are designed to do it.

A grate bar base body is set from raw material casting. It is covered with an elevated temp flexible plate on an exterior portion.

As well as this, a hole is implanted in the grate bar bottom body in a corner pointing to the plate. A side hole is implanted in the plate in relation to the grate bar base body all the way through the manufacturing process.

Before the grate bar ground body and protection plate are assembled, this hole is filled at least partially with ceramic fiber shielding material.

There are several options for connecting the plate and the grate bar ground body. In theory, a screw connection, pure compression molding, or something similar is feasible.

However, the cover plate should ideally be linked positively to the grate bar foundation body. Further mechanical interconnect parts, such as screws, can then be eliminated.

A tongue and groove linkage or a bung connection, more ideally a swallowtail connection, connects the grate bar base body in a present invention.
