Ceramic Fiber Board

Ceramic Fiber Boards are rigid, high-temperature insulation panels manufactured by vacuum-forming ceramic fiber slurries into dense, dimensionally precise sheets. They combine the low thermal conductivity of ceramic fiber with the structural rigidity needed for applications where blankets or loose fiber would be impractical — such as furnace roofs, expansion joints, door linings, and precision gasket applications. Imperial World Trade supplies ceramic fiber boards in a range of alumina-silica compositions and temperature grades, ensuring the right board specification for every furnace zone.

  • Temperature Grades: Available from 1,000°C to 1,430°C continuous service temperature depending on alumina content and fiber grade.
  • Low Thermal Conductivity: Exceptional heat retention capability, directly reducing fuel consumption in continuous furnace operations.
  • Dimensional Precision: Manufactured to tight thickness and flatness tolerances for use as precision gaskets and expansion joint fillers.
  • Low Thermal Mass: Rapid heating and cooling response, ideal for intermittent or batch furnace operations.
  • Chemical Resistance: Resistant to most industrial atmospheres including oxidizing, reducing, and neutral gas environments.
  • Machinability: Easily cut, routed, and shaped on-site to fit complex furnace geometries without specialist equipment.

Ceramic Fiber Boards from Imperial World Trade are supplied with full thermal conductivity curves and shot content data, ensuring your insulation system performs exactly as designed from the first firing cycle.
