Exothermic Riser Sleeve
Our exothermic sleeves are vacuum formed for iron and steel castings. Exochem sleeves are manufactured with quality materials and engineered for maximum performance and safety with minimum risk. Carpenter Brothers, Inc. offers three levels of exothermic riser sleeves; a mild exothermic sleeve for when the metal needs to stay liquid longer and a high exothermic product that adds heat to the metal for better feeding efficiency. We also offer an exothermic sleeve for manganese steel. These exothermic sleeves can be custom made with I.D.’s ranging up to 30″ and come in 6″, 8″, 10″, or 12″ lengths.
Exothermic Riser Sleeve Options:
- ES: Mild exothermic. Slow ignition. It burns at a slower rate than ESPX. Used mainly for larger diameter sleeves (7”-30”).
- ESPX: High exothermic. Fast ignition. Fast rate of burn. Used on inserts and smaller diameter risers (1”-6”).
- D-15: High exothermic. Ignites fast. Fast rate of burn. For manganese steel.

About Us
Carpenter Brothers, Inc. is the leading supplier of equipment, consumables, and technical expertise for the metal casting industry. Founded in 1917, by Everett and Milton Carpenter, the brothers were able to use their unique foundry experiences to solve the problem of the day: a reliable sand source. They got their foot in the door by selling natural bonded molding sand, which was mined by hand, loaded into horse-drawn carts, and then delivered to customers. Not only did they sell the sand, but their technical expertise was readily available for all customers, big or small, to help manufacture the best castings. After surviving The Great Depression, Carpenter Brothers, Inc. slowly increased the number of products it distributed and expanded its sales territory into what it is today.
Carpenter Brothers, Inc. has committed itself to its customer's success by providing exceptional service to go along with the superior products and equipment they supply. With multiple warehouses around the United States we can get you the products you need when you need them. Our logistics team can handle getting your order to you by truck, plane, or train. Our technical sales and engineering staff all have experience in the industry, so when you buy from Carpenter Brothers you gain access to all of our knowledge.
