Chemical Resistant Brick – Chimney Liners
(Pictured Below)

Backed by an outstanding record of service performance in severe flue gas environments, Continental Clay has earned a reputation as the leading source of chemical resistant brick for chimney liners. Continental's durable red shale and buff clay brick are specially formulated for density and strength to combat exposure to severe acid and thermal shock associated with flue gas environments. These brick meet or exceed ASTM C279 standards. Typical applications include independent brick liners, corbel liners, waste acid collection treatment pits and FGD scrubber modules. Chimney liners include power boiler stacks for electrical generation, power boiler/recovery boiler stacks for pulp and paper industry and coke battery stacks for steel industry. Also suitable for acid immersion applications such as sumps, pits and scrubber modules.

Design and Performance Features:

  • Time-tested quality
  • Proven history of performance
  • Red shale or buff clay formulations
  • Straight and chamfered shapes

Chemical Resistant Brick – Vessel and Tank Linings
(Pictured Below)





Studies have shown that no other system can provide the same level of corrosion protection for linings as chemical resistant brick and mortar with a membrane backing to form an impervious barrier. This system provides effective thermal, mechanical and chemical protection for tanks and vessels fabricated of steel or concrete. Typical applications include continuous strip and batch acid cleaning lines, vessel linings for chemical and pulp and paper industries, and waste acid collection sumps and pits. Also used in independent brick liners, corbel liners in power generation, pulp and paper and coke battery plants.

Design and Performance Features:

  • Time-tested quality
  • Proven performance
  • Red shale or buff clay formulations
