High-Alumina Refractory Firebrick
A dense refractory brick containing over 70% alumina (Al2O3) and silica (SiO2), fired after shaping to withstand temperatures exceeding 1700°C. Used primarily in furnace linings and kilns for its high thermal resistance and mechanical strength. Classifies under HTS 6902.20.50.20 as a refractory ceramic constructional good with more than 50% alumina-silica content, not of siliceous fossil meals.

Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If made from siliceous fossil meals like kieselguhr
Products from siliceous fossil meals or earths fall under 6902.10, separate from alumina-silica compositions.
If containing >50% carbon, graphite, or carbides
High-carbon refractory goods shift to heading 6903, excluding pure alumina-silica dominant products.
If for non-constructional uses like ladle nozzles
Special shapes not considered 'bricks, blocks, tiles' for construction move to 6904 as other refractory goods.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Verify chemical composition certificate showing >50% Al2O3/SiO2 to confirm classification and avoid reclassification to lower-duty codes
• Ensure firing temperature documentation exceeds 800°C as per Chapter 69 notes to distinguish from non-refractory ceramics
