A layer of scale is produced on the surface of metal during
re-heating of metal in furnace. Scale is a layer of oxide develop on the
surface of the steel because of high temperatures, up to l250 °C, and
the presence of oxygen and different gases.Descaling by High-pressure
jet produce mechanical force due to high impact pressure of a razor
blade like jet (extremely sharp edge) are consider for the removal of
the scale from the surface.
Scale is discharged from surface of Billet by different rate
of contraction of scale. The released scale is washed away with
high-pressure water through angled jet.
