The folks at my local brickyard, as many of you have indicated in other posts, were almost completely oblivious to the differences between the different types of firebricks (low-medium-high duty). However, they were able to provide me with an MSDS-type information sheet ... WOOT

Anyways, these bricks are comprised of only 16% Al2O3 (alumina?), and I have read that the target alumina amount should be closer to 30%. Can anyone tell me if these bricks will work well in my hearth and dome?

Thank you!!
