The Steele 25 Series Extruder
— Production rates up to 20 metric tons per hour
Pound for pound, this is the toughest machine we make. The Steele 25 Series is our smallest stiff extruder and pug sealer combination, designed for shaping up to 20 metric tons per hour. This low-maintenance, high-efficiency system handles the same demanding stiff extrusion applications as our larger extruders, but for lower production needs.
- Processes tough, plastic and sticky clays, and abrasive fines and dusts
- Trouble-free operation with minimal maintenance
- Drive options for easier installation
- Accepts batch-mixed materials
- Global service and inventory commitment
Stiff extrusion in a smaller footprint
The 25B Extruder features a vacuum chamber with two counter-rotating augers and large throat area to eliminate back feeding and bridging — two common problems with smaller extruders. The flanged front barrel works with single- or double-hinged die holders, or an optional hydraulic die changer, for running structural shapes up to 305mm square or 330mm in diameter.
All Steele extruders accept a wide range of dies for continuous shaping.
Easy installation, operation and maintenance
Like all Steele machinery, the 25 Series is designed for decades of maintenance-friendly, reliable production. The sealing auger, sealing core and sealing die are halved for fast removal and replacement. All wearing parts are cast from a specialty high-chrome alloy, developed for superior durability and wear-resistance.
Steele supports these machines with a global service and inventory commitment.
The Steele 25B Extruder offers convenient access to auger spirals and liners.
