What Is Aluminum Silicate Fiber?
Aluminum silicate fiber is a high-temperature insulation material made from a fused mixture of aluminum oxide (Al₂O₃) and silicon dioxide (SiO₂). With classification temperatures typically between 1260°C and 1430°C, it is produced through melting, fiberizing and needling processes to create lightweight, low-density fibers with strong thermal stability.
Key Features of Aluminum Silicate Fiber
The fiber retains structural stability and low thermal conductivity across this range, supporting reliable and efficient insulation for continuous and high-demand industrial furnace operations.
The fiber structure contains minimal mass, allowing furnace chambers and heated zones to heat up and cool down faster compared with dense refractories, improving cycle efficiency and reducing fuel use.
Compared with brick or castable linings, aluminum silicate fiber significantly lowers the overall lining weight, helping OEMs design lighter furnaces, supports, doors and movable kiln structures.
Its flexible fiber network absorbs rapid temperature fluctuations without cracking, making it suitable for frequent start-stop furnace operations and zones with uneven or rapidly shifting heating.
Blankets, boards and paper can be easily trimmed, curved or punched during installation, enabling precise fitting around burners, flanges, sight holes and irregular furnace geometries.
The material can be manufactured into blankets, rigid boards, paper, vacuum-formed blocks, modules, gaskets and custom shapes—offering furnace designers maximum layout flexibility.
Key Properties of Aluminum Silicate Ceramic Fiber
Aluminum silicate fiber maintains low thermal conductivity and stable structure within the 1260–1430°C range. Its lightweight fiber matrix offers strong thermal shock resistance and controlled shrinkage, ensuring reliable insulation performance in high-temperature furnace environments.

Why Choose Aluminum Silicate Fiber for High-Temperature Insulation?
Low thermal conductivity across the 1260–1430°C range helps reduce heat loss in furnace walls and hot zones, supporting energy-efficient operation during continuous industrial processes.
Engineered fiber composition maintains lining thickness and uniform insulation performance over long service cycles, reducing the risk of hot spots and premature lining degradation.
Aluminum silicate fiber integrates well with anchors, rigidizers, coatings and brick/castable backup layers, enabling flexible system design for both new furnace builds and retrofit upgrades.
Its low mass and easy-to-cut structure shorten installation time, reduce on-site labor intensity and allow faster turnaround during shutdowns or scheduled maintenance.

ADCERAX reviews your fuel type, flue gas composition, and burner arrangement to ensure compatibility and avoid fiber surface crystallization.
Yes—when the furnace requires lightweight construction, faster heat-up, and improved thermal efficiency. However, bricks may still be needed in areas with high mechanical abrasion. ADCERAX can design hybrid fiber–brick linings.
Look for:
• Hot spots on shell surfaces
• Significant shrinkage at joints
• Fiber powdering or delamination
• Reduced heat-up speed
ADCERAX can evaluate your lining condition from photos or drawings.
