ceramic intalox saddles


Ceramic Super Intalox saddles (or Ceramic super saddles for short, similar to Koch INTALOX) are the most frequently used high-performance packing which exhibit advantages for most applications in comparison with other packing of different shapes.  Ceramic super saddles' smooth surface imparts a high chemical resistance and provides them with a high level of stability.  Due to their simple form,  AceChemPack Ceramic Super Intalox saddles can be produced at a relatively low cost. 

Applications:

Ceramic Super Intalox saddles  ( similar to Koch-Glitsch INTALOX) are widely used as Regenerative Thermal oxidizers, Acid Gas Scrubbers, Dryer Towers, Tail Gas Scrubbers and Impasse Towers
