Magnesia Chrome Brick for Cement Rotary Kiln is a high-performance refractory product engineered for use in the burning zone and transition zone of rotary kilns. Made from high-purity magnesite and chromite, these bricks offer outstanding thermal stability, excellent resistance to thermal shock, and superior corrosion resistance against clinker and alkali materials. They are an essential component for extending kiln lining life and optimizing energy efficiency.

Production Details
Our magnesia chrome bricks are manufactured using high-purity fused magnesia and carefully selected chromite materials. The production process includes:
Raw Material Selection: Premium quality magnesia and chromite are selected to ensure chemical stability.
Fine Grinding & Mixing: Materials are ground and homogenously mixed under strict control.
High Pressure Forming: Bricks are shaped by hydraulic press to achieve high density and structural integrity.
High Temperature Sintering: Bricks are fired in high-temperature kilns (over 1700°C) to enhance bond strength and reduce porosity.
Strict Quality Control: Each batch undergoes rigorous inspection to meet international standards, including chemical composition, porosity, strength, and refractoriness.



Packing and Shipping Details
Packaging: Bricks are securely packed in fumigated wooden pallets with plastic wrapping and corner protection to avoid damage during transit.
Unit Weight: Approx. 3.0–4.5 kg/brick depending on size
Shipping: We support international shipping via sea or land freight. Lead time varies based on order quantity, typically within 15–20 days.
Customized Packaging: Available upon request with customer logo and specification label.
