Tuyeres by Thermafab

🔥 What Is a Tuyere?

In the core of every blast furnace lies the tuyere—a high-performance nozzle that injects hot air into the furnace to ignite coke and smelt iron ore. Made from copper and water-cooled for durability, tuyeres must endure extreme temperatures and relentless conditions.

🧊 Why Cooling Matters

To handle temperatures over 2,000°C, tuyeres rely on copper’s thermal conductivity and water-cooling systems. This prevents overheating, ensuring consistent furnace performance and extending component life.

🛠️ Smarter Tuyere Design

Modern tuyeres are built tough and smart:

• Multi-chamber designs for better strength and cooling

• Spiral channels for efficient heat transfer

• Protective coatings to resist wear and chemical attack

🔄 Integration with the System

Tuyeres work in sync with the tuyere stock to deliver hot blast air. These systems are engineered to withstand thermal expansion, prevent leaks, and maintain optimal pressure and flow.
