Conclusions
Refractories for steel-casting ladles used at present in the converter shop of the Novolipetsk Factory can be used for casting 100-ton heats. However, it is necessary to increase the resistance of the ladle linings.
Ladle bricks, stopper tubes, and zircon nozzles provide reliable casting of 3–4 heats in series without replacing the intermediate ladle.
To provide reliable covering of the jets where necessary it is recommended that use be made of highalumina plugs for intermediate ladle stoppers.
