Direct Reduction of Iron (DRI) plants operate under demanding reforming conditions elevated temperatures, large-diameter tubes, reducing gas atmospheres and continuous exposure to metal dusting risk. Component integrity in such environments directly influences plant availability, output stability and maintenance cycles.
At Uni Abex, we engineer centrifugal and static cast solutions designed specifically for these operational realities. From MIDREX®-based reformers to HYL/Energiron PGH systems, our components are developed to maintain structural reliability and dimensional stability under sustained furnace loads.
Reformer Tube Capability:
OD 200–300 mm | Minimum thickness 8.5 mm | Length 4–5.5 m (single piece)
PGH Tube Capability:
OD 100–250 mm | Length 4–5.5 m
Uni Abex manufactures large-diameter centrifugal cast reformer tubes specifically suited for DRI applications.
Beyond reformer and PGH tubes, Uni Abex supplies a comprehensive range of cast components for DRI plants, including:




Our experience spans multiple DRI regions, licensors and furnace configurations. With decades of supply to DRI units worldwide, Uni Abex components operate under real production loads delivering consistent performance and measurable lifecycle value.
