Abstract

Tuyere for the processing of metals in the liquid, solid or pasty state, and capable of introducing simultaneously and separately a gas and a powdered material. The tuyere comprises at least two well-centered concentric tubes, the gas being introduced into a non-external tube, and the powdered and compressed material being introduced into another tube, which is lubricated on its inner wall by a film of a lubricating substance introduced through a slot formed therein. The outer tube is traversed by an agent protecting the tuyere against its hot wear.
