No way! Not for me. How would you get out if it broke down in there?

Actually how would you get out of the glowing machine at all?

I am guessing there is no grease in the joints. I would want to use diesel that wouldn't burn. They must have a GREAT AC unit in the cab. Talk about the "Hot Seat".

Looks like Cat builds a purpose build track loader for slag work.


Includes high temp seals for the undercarriage.

STEEL MILL OPERATING RECOMMENDATIONS


Steel Mill Operating Recommendations​

Caterpillar recommends that Steel Mill machines be exposed to hot slag for less than 15 minutes each hour to allow for adequate cooling time between cycles. Typically, two machines per furnace and a backup machine for the site provide the best uptime. The timing, frequency and duration of the work and cooling cycles varies by job site, but exceeding the recommended exposure time will prevent the machine from meeting expected performance levels.
