Calcined Fire-Clay Powder
Calcined fire-clay is a high-alumina clay processed at high temperatures to enhance its heat resistance, used primarily in refractory brick manufacturing. It falls under HTS 2508.30.00.00 as fire-clay, a type of clay suitable for withstanding high temperatures without fusing. This product is essential for furnace linings and kilns.
Raw Fire-Clay Lumps
Raw fire-clay in lump form is unprocessed high-alumina clay mined for refractory applications like stove linings. Classified under HTS 2508.30.00.00 as fire-clay, distinct from expanded clays or other minerals. It provides the base material for firebricks and pottery kilns.
Fire-Clay Grogs
Fire-clay grogs are crushed and screened particles of fired clay used as aggregate in refractory mixes. They qualify under HTS 2508.30.00.00 as fire-clay (chamotte or dinas earths), valued for thermal stability in castables. Common in foundry and boiler applications.
High-Alumina Fire-Clay
High-alumina fire-clay contains over 40% Al2O3, ideal for severe thermal shock in steel plant refractories. It is classified in HTS 2508.30.00.00 as fire-clay, excluding expanded forms per chapter notes. Supplied in bulk for mixer plants.
Chamotte Fire-Clay
Chamotte is pre-fired fire-clay crushed into granules, used in refractory castables for improved strength. Falls under HTS 2508.30.00.00 as dinas earths or chamotte, a semi-processed clay product. Key for glass furnace repairs.
Dinas Fire-Clay Earth
Dinas earths are siliceous fire-clays used in high-temperature silica bricks for coke ovens. Classified under HTS 2508.30.00.00 as fire-clay variants like chamotte or dinas. Known for low flux content and purity.
