Product Description
Ceramsource IFB 9" x 4.5" x 3" #1 Wedge, 20ct Box
High temperature insulating fire bricks offers a unique combination of insulating properties along with load bearing ability. The temperature ranges are from 2000º F to 3000º F, is where IFBs really shine. It’s low thermal conductivity are as low as ceramic fiber based products, but with the rigidity capable of dealing with harsh and abrasive applications.
CeramSource, Inc. offers high temperature insulating fire bricks (IFB) that can also support loads.
IFB is a type of soft brick made from refractory ceramic, which is a mixture of alumina and silica. It has a low thermal conductivity and is an excellent insulator that reflects heat well. IFB is lightweight and can withstand high temperatures, making it useful as insulation in kilns, furnaces, and forges.
Features of IFB:
- – Excellent strength at ambient and elevated temperatures
- – High compression strength
- – Every brick ground to precise dimensions
- – Very low levels of iron and other impurities
- – Lightweight and energy-efficient
- – Lower heat storage than denser refractories
- – Heats quickly and economically to operating temperature
- – Cools fast to speed periodic operations.
