Abstract
An impact pad for use in a tundish vessel utilizes outer and inner guides which partially surround the region of impact except in the direction of the one or more tundish drains. Much of the molten iron or steel entering the tundish is directed toward a drain by the inner guide or guides. The inner and outer guides define a channel such that molten iron or steel which splashes or otherwise flows over the inner guides can also be directed toward the one or more tundish drains.
