What are firebricks made of?

Refractory bricks are made of clay, which is made up of two main materials. On the one hand, alumina and, on the other, silica, elements that are capable of withstanding high temperatures and that offer us essential qualities for the construction of our wood-fired ovens.

Alumina offers us reflective qualitiesTherefore, the greater the amount of alumina in the brick, the higher the temperature that the brick will be able to withstand.

Silica, for its part, is an excellent thermal insulator, which helps that the heat does not pass out and condenses more inside the oven, which favors the conservation of heat, for a longer time.

What are the main characteristics of refractory bricks?

Therefore, and based on their compositional elements, what are the characteristics of refractory bricks?

The color that these bricks adopt can be brown or white / beige. This is due to its manufacturing process, if it contains more alumina they will be more brown, if silica predominates they will be more whitish.

High density parts. Refractory bricks offer us different thicknesses and, especially, the ideal densities to build and enjoy our wood-burning ovens.

They have a smooth and homogeneous texture. Refractory bricks are sold ready and perfect for use. Its texture and homogeneity, facilitate the construction work and the balanced obtaining of the results in all the points of our oven.

Low thermal conductivity. They offer low thermal conductivity and low heat storage properties. Therefore, they are ideal for use as cladding in hot areas or as an insulation support for higher density bricks.

What are the advantages of refractory bricks for wood-fired ovens?

Due to its characteristics, refractory bricks for wood-fired ovens are essential for their construction, since they offer us different advantages, both in their construction, and in their use and enjoyment. Among them, we highlight:
