High-quality channel blocks are in great demand on the market. This is why RATH has not only resumed production of forehearth 333 channel blocks, but has also developed new, premium zircon-mullite channel blocks.  

Recently RATH has started to supply the FOURATH®420 and 433 zircon-mullite channel blocks to its customers. “The first installations were done with great success. Currently we have several ongoing projects in the production phase, and in 2024 we continue to expand our forehearth business segment, offering a complete refractory package to our customers”, says Robert Nusszer, Head of Sales Glass, RATH. 

In addition to the development of FOURATH®4, RATH has resumed the production of forehearth 333 channel blocks at the US facility in Owensville. The channel blocks are manufactured using the original 333 formulas with the original casting technology, which made the mix popular on the market, from Europe to the USA and Asia.
