Fireclay Refractory Tile
Fireclay refractory tiles are fired high-alumina clay tiles for boiler walls and incinerator floors, providing good abrasion resistance. They are constructional elements in high-heat environments. HTS 6902.90.50.20 covers these as other refractory ceramic tiles.

Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If containing >50% alumina from fireclay
High-alumina fireclay variants classify under specific 6902.20 provisions.
If for non-refractory glazed floor tiles
Glazed clay tiles without refractory properties go to porcelain/earthenware tiles.
If irregularly shaped fireclay pieces
Non-standard constructional forms are other refractory goods in 6903.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Certify clay essential ingredient and firing process to meet Chapter 69 definitions
• Ensure tiles <3.2cm thick if marketed as such, per US notes on tiles
• Prevent misclassification as flooring tiles (6907) by specifying refractory end-use
