Riser Sleeves
Midvale provides exothermic riser sleeves, insulating riser sleeves, breaker cores, and direct pour cups to improve your casting feeding process.
Our Riser Sleeves
Riser sleeves provide insulation to reduce heat loss from the riser (insulated sleeves), to generate heat to maintain temperature from lost heat (exothermic sleeves), or do both. Sleeves provide consistency by reducing shrinkage and improving overall casting quality. Riser sleeves also reduce labor costs by providing easier riser knock off and a smaller contact area (breaker-cores).
The sleeves we provide to our customers are inspected for consistency in their density, roundness, and wall thickness, ensuring consistency in your process. They are also engineered to be used in all molding systems and molding machines with a variety of sleeve shapes to choose from (straight, necks, downs, domes, and more).
Exothermic Riser Sleeves
Create heat and reduce metal shrinkage with exothermic riser sleeves. The top of the sleeve lights off the metal to have it flow back to the casting, reducing metal loss. Also offer hot toppings to prevent metal shrinkage.
Insulating Riser Sleeves
Reduce heat loss during metal pouring with insulating riser sleeves.
Other Sleeve Options:
We offer riser sleeves for iron, steel, and nonferrous foundries. Many styles of sleeves are available including insulating and exothermic mixes. See below for types of riser sleeve shapes.
