Description of Fireclay Brick

Fireclay brick is a common type of refractory brick with an AL203 content of around 30%-48%. It is made from refractory clay and fired clinker through crushing, mixing, molding as well as firing process. Fireclay tiles are widely used in the construction of blast furnaces, hot blast furnaces, and glass furnaces because of their low bulk weight, low heat capacity, good resistance to thermal shock, and resistance to scouring by air currents.

Fireramo’s fireclay refractory bricks are made of refractory clay/kaolin and clay clinker with bonded clay, and are molded by both semi-dry and plastic methods. Fireclay bricks are baked at a temperature of 1250-1420°C. Its refractoriness is generally in the range of 1580°C- 1750°C, and it is characterized by high load softening point, abrasion resistance, good heat resistance, and so on. As a manufacturer of clay refractory bricks, we offer you wholesale & export services at factory price.

Features of Fireclay Bricks

High temperature resistance

Fireramo fireclay bricks have excellent high temperature resistance. Fireramo fireclay tiles have a refractoriness up to 1770°, which is very suitable for high temperature applications;

High erosion resistance

Fireclay refractory bricks belong to acidic refractory bricks, its raw materials of clay and kaolin contain high silicate and aluminate, which can resist various acids, alkalis, salts and other chemical corrosion.

Low Bulk Weight & Low Heat Capacity

Fireramo’s fireclay tiles have a low bulk weight and low heat capacity, which significantly reduces the heating and cooling time of the kiln.

High density & low porosity

The low porosity of Fireramo’s fireclay bricks means that they do not readily absorb water or other liquids, and are therefore also resistant to thermal shock and freezing cycles;

Good mechanical strength

Fireramo’s fireclay bricks have good thermal shock resistance and resistance to air washout, giving them good mechanical strength.

Moisture absorption properties

Fireclay tiles are able to absorb moisture and release it quickly, providing a moisture regulating effect. This helps regulate indoor humidity and provides a healthy and comfortable indoor environment.

Low thermal conductivity and thermal insulation

Adiabatic performance is good. Fireclay refractory bricks often contain some adiabatic materials. These materials can improve the adiabatic performance of the fireclay refractory bricks and make them have excellent heat preservation performance in high temperature environment.

Convenient construction

Fireclay bricks have good plasticity and workability, and are easy to cut and shape. It can be customized according to design needs, simplifying the construction process and reducing waste.

Long service life

Due to its inherent durability and resistance to abrasion, fireclay refractory brick has a long service life.

Application of Fireclay Brick

Industrial Kiln

Fireclay bricks are common refractory materials used in industrial kilns, which are widely used in metallurgy, chemical industry, building materials and other industries. For example, in the masonry of blast furnaces, converters, electric furnaces, glass melting kilns and other industrial kilns, the use of fireclay refractory bricks can ensure the normal operation and long life of the kiln.

Chimneys and flues

Fireclay bricks are also used in the construction of chimneys and flues. The chimney is the channel through which flue gases are released into the atmosphere, while the flue is the pipe system that directs the flue gases to the chimney. Fireclay refractory bricks resist the erosion of hot flue gases, ensuring the structural stability and safe operation of chimneys and flues.

Grate and furnace lining

Fireclay refractory bricks are used as a lining material for the grate and the furnace chamber. The grate is the structure used to support and hold the fuel, while the hearth is the combustion area. Fireclay refractory bricks are able to withstand high temperatures and chemical attack, protecting the grate and hearth from thermal stress and corrosion.

Refractory materials for construction

Fireclay bricks are widely used as a refractory material in construction. For example, the refractory masonry of building walls and the construction of heat-insulating layers. Fireclay bricks have good heat insulation and high temperature resistance properties, which can effectively protect the building structure, and play a role in fire prevention and heat insulation in case of fire and other situations.

Metallurgical industry

Fireclay bricks are also widely used in the metallurgical industry, and can be used for the lining of smelting equipment, heat insulation layer, furnace bottom, etc.. For example, in the masonry and repair of smelting equipment such as steel furnaces, aluminum electrolysis tanks, copper smelting furnaces, etc., the use of fireclay bricks can ensure the stability and long life of the smelting process.

Chemical industry

Some production equipment in the chemical industry also requires the use of refractory materials for masonry and protection. Fireclay bricks, as a common refractory material, can be used in the chemical industry for the construction and maintenance of high-temperature reactors, heating furnaces, drying furnaces and other equipment.

Power industry

Refractory materials are also used for the construction and maintenance of electric furnaces, boilers and other equipment in the power industry. Fireclay bricks, as a common refractory material, can be widely used in the masonry and maintenance of thermal power stations and power plants in the power industry to ensure the normal operation and efficient operation of the equipment.
