Insulating Firebricks are whitish in color and light weight. They are made of mullite, a product of aluminum and silicate after exposure of refractory clay in high temperature. Depending on the density and the refractoriness they are classified as JM23, JM26, JM28, JM30, JM32.
Insulating fire bricks (IFBs) are porous light weight firebricks that endure in continuous use temperatures as the maximum continuous use temperature depends on the application. JM’s are mostly used in refractories industries and home appliance industry as well. They are insulating fire bricks that resist in extreme temperatures ideal for the insulation of kilns, doors, pizza ovens etc.
They can be easily cut by handheld hack saw or other hand tools like chisel. Insulating firebricks have high porous rate and have excellent insulating properties,
Each type is formulated to meet specific thermal and physical requirements and after firing, each type is machined to precise tolerances. Made from high purity refractory clays and other ceramic raw materials, these Insulating firebricks contain carefully graded organic filler, which is burned out during production to give a uniform controlled pore structure.
The lightweight and high insulating value of our IFB’s improves efficiency and lower operating costs. Next to the delivery of standard sizes, Roka Refractories has a specific department in cuttings by which we can provide you in boxes the exact dimensions of your requirements.
