Fire Bricks & Fireclay Refractories — Supplier from India
Fire bricks are the workhorse refractory family — fired clay-based bricks with aluminium oxide (Al₂O₃) between 30% and 46%, plus high-silica and mullite-bonded variants. They line industrial furnaces, kilns, chimneys and chambers operating up to 1500 °C; specialised silica grades extend to 1700 °C. The fireclay family is the starting point for most general-purpose refractory linings — competitive on cost, reliable in service, and well-understood by procurement and engineering teams worldwide. firebrickssource.com supplies the full range — dense fireclay, silica, mullite and pre-shaped arch / wedge bricks — manufactured and exported from Rajkot, Gujarat, India to industrial buyers across cement, steel, ceramics and chemical sectors.
