Feeding system products are a range of insulating, exothermic-insulating or exothermic sleeves designed to extend the solidification times of feeder heads. They may be open or closed and are available in a wide range of design and sizes. They can be supplied with or without breaker cores.

The application of Foseco feeding solutions avoid shrinkage defects and improve casting yields, reducing the amount of non-productive metal poured. Significant savings can also be made in fettling and cleaning operations.

• KALMIN feeders for aluminium alloys  
  Low density insulating feeder sleeves suitable for general purpose application to aluminium castings.  

• Feeding systems for heavy alloys  
  KALMIN insulating and KALMINEX exothermic insulating sleeves for heavy metal casting.
  

• FEEDOL anti-piping compounds and KAPEX lids
  Exothermic and insulating powders and prefabricated lids applied to the surface of risers on aluminium and copper base castings to reduce heat loss to the atmosphere and extend solidification time.
