About Kiln Pillars
Kiln Pillar is designed to meet different temperature ranges for offering maximum performance. This is developed with low mass using quality raw materials to ensure to provide superior thermal resistance. Selected brick grades are used in the production for long service life of the brick lining. The pillar is developed to overcome the challenges of intensive abrasion and heavy thermal shock. In addition, it is also ideal to withstand high thermo-mechanical stress as well as chemically aggressive conditions.
Exceptional Design & Material QualityCrafted from high-quality refractory ceramic, our kiln pillars excel in strength, thermal resistance, and chemical durability. The round, columnar design and smooth finish enable stable stacking and dependable support for kiln furniture. Available in standard diameters or custom sizes, these pillars are engineered to maintain structural integrity even under high temperatures and heavy loads.
Optimized Performance for KilnsIdeal for both electric and gas kilns, these pillars deliver reliable separation between shelves and facilitate efficient stacking of wares. Their low porosity ensures minimal absorption, while high flexural strength supports heavy applications. Operating seamlessly up to 1700C, they resist corrosion from alkalis and slags, making them indispensable for demanding kiln environments.
FAQs of Kiln Pillars:
Q: How are kiln pillars used within kilns and furnaces?
A: Kiln pillars are strategically placed between shelves or kiln furniture to provide sturdy support and maintain proper separation. This allows for efficient stacking of ceramic wares or materials during firing, ensuring evenly distributed heat and structural stability throughout the process.
Q: What are the benefits of using off white or cream refractory ceramic kiln pillars?
A: These kiln pillars offer high-temperature resistance (up to 1700C), excellent chemical durability, low porosity, and strong load-bearing capacity. Their color and smooth finish help prevent contamination and make ware retrieval easier, while their lightweight design simplifies handling.
Q: When should I consider custom-sized kiln pillars?
A: Custom-sized kiln pillars are recommended when standard diameters or lengths do not fit your specific kiln dimensions or stacking requirements. Manufacturers can tailor the size, length, or even properties to ensure optimal performance for unique kiln setups or specialty firing processes.
Q: Where are these kiln pillars manufactured and supplied from?
A: These refractory ceramic kiln pillars are engineered, produced, and supplied by exporters and manufacturers based in India, with the capability to ship to international customers as well.
Q: What makes these pillars suitable for heavy-duty applications?
A: With a flexural strength of at least 120 MPa, low thermal expansion, and a robust refractory ceramic composition, these pillars exhibit remarkable dimensional stability and load capacity, making them highly effective for heavy or repeated load-bearing scenarios within kilns.
Q: How does the smooth or glazed finish enhance pillar performance?
A: The smooth or glazed surface minimizes friction during shelf placement and removal, helps prevent sticking or chemical interaction with wares, and reduces the risk of particulate contamination inside the kiln environment.
