Abstract

The graphite wall of a mould for casting a metallurgical product includes a holder frame, a plurality of vertically disposed graphite blocks having vertical bores therein, upper and lower fixing members for fixing each of the graphite blocks in a vertical position on the frame holder. The graphite wall also includes cooling elements for introducing a cooling fluid into the bores. The lower fixing member of each graphite block forms a collector for the cooling fluid.
