Auctioneer's Note:
The Double-end Chesmont furnace, was built in 1990. It was custom made by the local Chesmont Engineering firm. They also engineered and built the 18' Temper furnace with an identical hearth footprint to match the 18' double furnace. The Temper furnace has a used hearth as well. The 18' Chesmont double furnace has one(1) car that is newly cast, and one(1) car that is used. These cars can handle 120,000 lbs. The 18' Temper is about 5-years newer than the 18' Double furnace.


The two quench tanks for the Chesmont double are 1/2" gauge steel, 15' deep, 7.5' wide. The oil-quench tank is 25' long, with four (4) 10-hp agitators (two diagonally located each end) for excellent agitation. This tank can hold 12,000-gallons, and has #100 AAA quench oil in it. It also has an air-cool system to cool the oil. The Water quench tank is all the same dimensions except it is a little shorter, about 22' long. This tank has two (2) newly rebuilt 10-hp agitators in it.
 

BOTH tanks are in pits for secondary containment , and the oil-quench tank has a state-of-art safety system with a 15,000 gallon dump tank, and custom automated extinguishing system.
 

There is also a large H2O quench tank that is 110" wide x 5' deep x 42' long. It has (6) 15-hp. agitators, and can hold approximately 40,000 gallons. **ALONGSIDE THE 40' FURNACE**
