Repairable slide shutter plate and/or bottom nozzle brick and methods for the manufacture and repair of a repairable slide shutter plate and/or bottom nozzle brick

A method for repairing a combination comprising a slide shutter plate and a bottom nozzle brick, which combination is made of two nested parts, an outer part and an inner part, which parts are joined to each other in a detachable manner, where the inner part after use is to be replaced with a new inner part for repair of the combination, wherein the new inner part is of refractory casting mass cast inside the outer part, which method comprises the following steps:

• removing the inner part after use from the interior of the outer part;
• replacing a new inner part inside the outer part so that the combination is again ready for use,
• characterized in that the replacing step is realized by casting the new inner part of refractory casting mass inside the outer part, and in that after the step of removing the inner part after use from the interior of the outer part follows a step of treating an inner surface of the outer part with a release agent.
