Brick?

rez | Posted in General Discussion on

I was hoping someone might be able to fill me in on the uses of this type of firebrick. Is it equal to what you might find in the standard yellow firebrick?

      Rez ,If it is tapered like the top chunk it could be for a round furnace/kiln/oven.

        Thanks DP,

         ya, a lot of them are tapered. I was wondering if anyone knew if the fire rating was the same as the standard yellow fire brick.
