Fire clay bricks, also known as refractory clay bricks or furnace bricks, are a type of ceramic brick designed for high-temperature applications. They are made from a specific type of clay called fire clay, which contains a high percentage of alumina (Al2O3) and silica (SiO2).

Fire clay bricks have excellent resistance to high temperatures, thermal shock, and chemical erosion, making them suitable for lining furnaces, kilns, fireplaces, and other industrial equipment exposed to extreme heat. The high alumina content in fire clay bricks provides good refractory properties, while the presence of silica imparts high strength and resistance to acids and alkalis.

These bricks are typically formed by shaping the fire clay into the desired shape and then firing them at high temperatures to achieve sintering. The firing process enhances their structural integrity and heat resistance. Fire clay bricks can withstand temperatures ranging from 1,400°C to 1,800°C (2,552°F to 3,272°F), depending on their composition and classification.

Fire clay bricks come in different grades and classifications based on their alumina content, density, thermal conductivity, and application-specific properties. They are available in various shapes and sizes to suit different construction and industrial requirements.
