As a result, we deliver factory-direct pricing, consistent fiber quality, and fast delivery. Similarly, this applies to all your furnace, kiln, petrochemical heater, and high-temperature equipment lining projects.
In addition, we produce these prefabricated ceramic fiber modules in standard 1260°C, high-purity 1260°C, high-alumina 1360°C, and zirconia 1430°C grades. Meanwhile, we comply with ASTM C892 and EN 1094-1. Therefore, engineers and contractors rely on them for rapid furnace lining installation with low heat storage and excellent thermal shock resistance.

Material & Physical Specifications for Ceramic Fiber Modules
- To begin with, we use high-purity alumina-silicate raw materials as the base for our ceramic fiber modules. The fiber is produced by melting and blowing or spinning, then needle-punched to form a flexible blanket before being folded or stacked into modules.
- Moreover, our modules have a standard density of 128 kg/m³, 160 kg/m³, or 192 kg/m³, depending on the grade and application requirements.
- Additionally, we manufacture standard module sizes of 300 × 300 × 300 mm and 305 × 305 × 305 mm. Custom sizes are available on request.
- Furthermore, our modules achieve a permanent linear shrinkage of less than 2.5% (24-hour holding, based on 128 kg/m³ density).
- For special orders, we supply aluminum foil faced and stainless steel wire reinforced ceramic fiber modules for enhanced surface protection.
- Finally, we offer OEM & ODM — we customize density, module dimensions, temperature grade, anchor system, and packaging according to your specifications.
Folded & Stacked Ceramic Fiber Modules — Types & Installation Systems
In fact, ceramic fiber modules are prefabricated insulation blocks made by folding or stacking ceramic fiber blanket into compressed modules and securing them with built-in anchors. Furthermore, the compressed construction allows modules to expand slightly after untying, closing joints between blocks and reducing hot spots and through-gaps. Therefore, the modular design delivers faster installation, reduced shrinkage, and lower heat storage compared to traditional layered linings.
Module Construction Types
- Folded Modules — Accordion-folded ceramic fiber blanket compressed to a specific density and held in position with anchors. This is the most common type for furnace wall and roof linings.
- Stacked Modules — Ceramic fiber blanket strips stacked in parallel layers with the fiber oriented perpendicular to the furnace shell. This design provides excellent resistance to gas flow erosion.
- Edge Grain Modules — Fiber blanket stacked with the edge facing the hot surface, offering superior thermal shock resistance and mechanical strength.
Prefabricated Anchor Systems
- Weld-Loc System — A special weld assembly permits fusion of the stud base to the furnace casing. High installation speed and positive torque test of welds.
- Power-Loc System — A hardened steel pin mechanically secures each module to the steel casing plate using a powder-actuated fastening tool. Eliminates casing preparation and permits random placement.
- Thread-Loc System — All-thread weld stud and flanged nut designed for installation on a prepositioned stud pattern. Compatible with mastic coatings and backup insulation.
Why Choose Our Thermal Ceramic Fiber Modules?
In fact, ceramic fiber modules are the industry standard for high-temperature insulation because they offer low thermal conductivity, low heat storage, and excellent thermal shock resistance. Furthermore, the prefabricated modular design significantly reduces installation time compared to traditional brick or monolithic linings.
- First, our modules offer low heat storage. The low mass and porous microstructure reduce thermal storage, helping furnace linings reach operating temperature faster and lowering fuel or power consumption per batch.
- Second, they provide faster installation. Pre-compressed modules with integrated anchors can be quickly fastened to the furnace shell, reducing labor costs.
- Third, they deliver reduced shrinkage compared to layered lining construction, ensuring long-term lining integrity.
- Fourth, they ensure excellent thermal shock resistance. The fiber-based structure tolerates frequent heating and cooling cycles better than many brick or monolithic linings.
- Finally, they provide superior thermal stability. The resilient blanket is resistant to mechanical damage and can be easily cut on-site to suit awkward configurations.
Applications & Industries for Ceramic Fiber Modules
- For instance, in petrochemical heaters and reformers, our modules insulate process heaters, ammonia reformers, and crude oil heaters at temperatures up to 1430°C.
- Also, in steel industry furnaces, they line continuous annealing furnaces, reheat furnaces, and carbottom heat treating furnaces.
- In addition, for kilns and ceramic kilns, they provide reliable insulation for shuttle kilns, tunnel kilns, and brick kilns.
- Furthermore, in glass industry furnaces, they insulate furnace walls and roofs for energy efficiency.
- Lastly, in incineration equipment and stack linings, they protect against high-temperature gases and thermal cycling.

How to Install Thermal Ceramic Fiber Modules
- First, prepare the furnace shell surface. Clean the steel shell to remove rust, scale, oil, and moisture. Ensure the surface is suitable for welding or mechanical fastening.
- Then, install the anchors. Weld or fasten the module anchors to the furnace shell in the specified pattern. For Weld-Loc systems, weld the stud base to the casing. For Power-Loc systems, use a powder-actuated tool to secure the anchor pin.
- Next, position the module. Place the ceramic fiber module onto the anchors and compress it against the furnace shell.
- After that, secure the module. Tighten the fastener or nut to draw the module firmly against the casing plate. The module will expand slightly after untying, closing joints between adjacent modules.
- Finally, verify the installation. Check that all modules are securely fastened, joints are tight, and the lining surface is level and uniform.
