Resin-Bonded Magnesia Ladle Bricks
Resin-bonded magnesia ladle bricks are specialized bricks for steel ladle linings, featuring over 70% magnesia, trace to less than 30% carbon, and resin chemical bonding for superior erosion resistance. They are used in molten metal handling in steel mills. These bricks fall under tariff item 6810.11.00 as building blocks of artificial stone.
