    This document provides data on a dense andalusite brick composed of 57% alumina. The brick has low porosity, high creep resistance, and low impurities, making it suitable for applications like tundish well blocks, striker pads, arc furnace roofs, steel ladles, and rotary kilns. Key properties include an apparent porosity of 15.3%, bulk density of 2490 kg/m3, cold crushing strength of 55 MPa, and less than 0.08% deformation at high temperatures. The brick should be stored protected from moisture.

    GENERAL / APPLICATION:

    The low porosity, high creep resistance and low impurity content are such that this product is
    suitable for tundish well blocks and striker pads, arc furnace roofs, steel ladles, reheat
    furnaces, rotary kilns, checkers and general applications.

    Storage: Under roof, preferably on a concrete apron, protected from rain and the ingress of
    moisture. Packaging should not be opened until the bricks are required for use.
