What is Refractory Mortar (Maxset 50)?
Refractory Mortar (Maxset 50) is a ready-to-use, high-temperature bonding material specially formulated for laying and joining refractory bricks, firebricks, and insulation materials used in furnaces, kilns, boilers, and fireplaces.
Unlike ordinary cement or clay mortars, Maxset 50 is engineered to withstand continuous exposure to extreme heat — up to 1500°C — without cracking, shrinking, or losing adhesion. It provides a strong, dense, and gas-tight bond that keeps heat contained and improves the efficiency and lifespan of your furnace or structure.
Its formulation combines alumina (Al₂O₃), silica (SiO₂), and other high-quality refractory materials, ensuring exceptional thermal stability, chemical resistance, and mechanical strength.
