This can generate significant cost and outage cycle time benefits.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Quik-X, an alternative to the traditional \u201chex mesh,\u201d is a half-hexagon shaped, castable anchor grid and can be manufactured with a variety of alloy types, ranging from carbon steel to exotic stainless steels. It is primarily designed for, but not limited to, use in FCCUs, which can withstand the high temperatures used to crack petroleum crude oils into more valuable gasoline, olefinic gases and other products. Quik-X reinforces refractories against cracking and falling, which protects the integrity of the structure and allows it to be used with MIG (metal inert gas), TIG (tungsten inert gas) or stick welding and is specially designed to be used with <a href=\"https:\/\/brandsafway.com\/brandtech-precision-welding\">BrandTech\u2122 Precision Welding<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe modeled Quik-X after anchoring systems that have been used for the past 50 years to keep the design similar to what our customers are familiar with and make it easy to use,\u201d said Eduardo Almeida, director of Innovation, Research and Development (R&#038;D) for Industrial Specialists by BrandSafway. \u201cIn addition, Quik-X works with existing welding technologies as well as new technologies like BrandTech.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In addition, Quik-X has been shown to reduce metal volume by 6.29% per square foot in refractory linings when compared to other single-cell anchors, and the less metal used in refractory linings, the more efficient its abrasive properties become. Quik-X also offers a minimum 7.17% surface area increase per square foot for improved anchoring grip.<\/p>\n<p>Both design and utility patents for Quik-X are pending.
