Description of high-glysemite bricks
Kerui andalusite brick is used in the first lining of various industrial furnaces. The refractoriness under load reaches a maximum of 1700℃ (3092℉). Andalusite brick can effectively improve the efficiency of high temperature industrial furnace.

Properties of andalusite bricks
- Andalusite bricks have excellent heat resistance and can withstand exposure to high temperatures without significant deformation or breakage.
- Andalusite bricks have excellent abrasion and corrosion resistance, withstanding wear and corrosion under long term use.
- Andalusite brick has excellent thermal shock resistance: it can withstand sudden temperature changes and thermal shocks without cracking or breaking.
- Andalusite bricks have a very low creep coefficient, i.e. they deform very little when loaded at high temperatures and retain good stability and strength.
- Andalusite bricks have a high softening point under load, meaning they are able to maintain a high level of strength and stability under load in high temperature environments.
- Andalusite bricks reduce harmful impurities such as iron oxide, which improves their insulating properties and durability.
- Andalusite bricks also have good resistance to thermal cracking, i.e. large areas of cracking do not form on its surface under high temperature conditions, thus preserving its service life and stability.
