Abstract:
All of a cast-iron or cast-copper stave cooler's weight is supported inside a furnace containment shell by single gas-tight steel collar on the backside. All the coolant piping in each cooler has every external connection collected and routed together through the one steel collar. A wear protection barrier is disposed on the hot face. Such is limited to include at least one of horizontal rows of ribs and channels that retain metal inserts or refractory bricks, or pockets that assist in the retention of castable cement and/or accretions frozen in place from a melt, or an application of an area of hardfacing that is welded on in bead, crosshatch, or weave pattern.

Claim (Index 8):
An improved furnace copper cooling block with increased wear resistance to at least one of abrasion, impact, metal-to-metal contact, heat, and corrosion on an included hot face surface, the improvement comprising:\n a hardfacing comprising at least one alloy of nickel and chromium fused by welding to less than the entire surface and only on portions of the surface of the hot face predetermined to be more exposed during use to wear than are any other portions, and wherein the hardfacing is applied as a weld overlay of molten metal in an inert shield gas; wherein the one alloy of nickel and chromium has a minimum of 55% nickel, a minimum of 18% chromium, and a maximum of 6% iron.
