Casted Corner, Extruded Perimeter Block

Casted Corner and Extruded Perimeter Block are Cordierite Mullite components that form the perimeter frame of the kiln car — the mobile platform that carries ware through the firing chamber. The casted corners join perimeter runs at each angle, while the extruded blocks form the straight perimeter sections, together giving the car a rigid, heat-resistant boundary. Manufactured by Imerys (Spain).

Casted Corner and Extruded Perimeter Block are Cordierite Mullite components that form the perimeter frame of the kiln car — the mobile platform that carries ware through the firing chamber. The casted corners join perimeter runs at each angle, while the extruded blocks form the straight perimeter sections, together giving the car a rigid, heat-resistant boundary. Manufactured by Imerys (Spain).

Assembled together to build the outer frame of the kiln car — the casted corners anchor each turn of the perimeter while the extruded blocks span the straights, containing the load setting and maintaining car geometry through repeated loading, firing, and cooling cycles.
