Abstract
Abstract Bottom and wall refractory bricks for steel casting ladles are shaped to minimize penetration of slag into the lining formed by courses of the refractory bricks to prolong the life of the refractory bricks and to improve performance and lessen maintenance. The bricks have an oblique tilted midpart and end equal right parallelepipedal top and bottom socles or end surfaces. The long side of each brick is double the short side.
