Fireclay bricks

TB-C
For furnace bottoms of glass melting furnaces and parts of the tank block that come into contact with glass, it is common to use AZS fused cast refractories or alpha/beta alumina fused cast refractories. For furnaces with increased thermal insulation, molten glass penetrates through joints in the fused cast refractories. Furnace bottoms and lined bricks of tank blocks come into contact with glass that flows in through the joints. Refractories used in these situations must have high corrosion and pollution resistance against molten glass. Most suitable is tank block that is carefully-selected clay-type materials, produced under appropriate condition. Tank block is produced in a large mold to prevent further molten glass penetration.

Low-porous chamotte bricks
Super duty chamotte bricks
RG-35
This fireclay brick uses special ingredients which is formed at high pressure and fully sintered, so that it has very low porosity and is highly heat-resistant. It is also highly alkali resistant and creep resistant. It is particularly suitable for the lower parts of regenerator checkers, rider arch and middle and lower parts of regenerators walls.
RG-34
This product is fireclay brick that is dense and highly alkali-resistant. It is suitable for lower parts of regenerator walls.

Standard chamotte bricks
Standard chamotte bricks
Using carefully-selected quality ingredients, these stable quality chamotte bricks are produced using a highly quality-controlled system. We offer SK-34 and SK-32, depending on heat-resistance. They are widely used in glass melting furnaces' melter, back-up material for working end walls and walls/furnace bottoms of lower parts of regenerators.
