Maximize Refractory Holding Strength with V Shape Anchors – Engineered for Precision and Durability

In high-temperature industrial operations, the reliability of refractory linings is critical to plant performance, energy efficiency, and safety. One of the most essential components that ensures refractory materials stay firmly in place is the V Shape Anchor a simple yet highly effective anchoring solution trusted across a wide range of industries.

V Shape Anchors

What Are V Shape Anchors?


V Shape Anchors are metallic fasteners specifically designed to secure refractory linings, such as castables, bricks, or ceramic fibre modules, to the steel shell of furnaces, kilns, and reactors. Their V-shaped design offers optimal strength distribution, flexibility during thermal expansion, and secure bonding with the lining material.


Whether used in vertical, horizontal, or overhead installations, V Shape Anchors play a key role in maintaining the structural integrity of refractory linings during operation.


Key Features of V Shape Anchors


  • Strong mechanical support for refractory materials

  • Designed to resist thermal cycling and vibration

  • Simple yet effective design for easy installation

  • Available in various materials like SS 304, SS 310, and Inconel

  • Custom sizes and thicknesses for all lining configurations


Why V Shape Anchors Are Critical in Refractory Systems


Industrial furnaces, kilns, and boilers operate under extreme temperatures and are exposed to harsh mechanical and chemical conditions. Refractory linings can become unstable over time due to:


  • Thermal shock and expansion

  • Mechanical load or vibration

  • Gas infiltration or erosion


Without the proper anchoring system, the lining may crack, spall, or collapse, leading to costly downtime and repairs. V Shape Anchors act as a reinforcement framework that holds the refractory lining tightly in place, extending its service life and improving heat retention.


Common Applications of V Shape Anchors

V Shape Anchors are widely used in:


  • Steel and metal processing furnaces

  • Cement rotary kilns and burner pipes

  • Petrochemical reformers and crackers

  • Power plant boilers and incinerators

  • Glass industry regenerators and crowns


They are ideal for castable refractory linings and ceramic fibre modules, offering unmatched holding power and resistance to high-temperature corrosion.


Material Options for V Shape Anchors

To meet different thermal and chemical conditions, V Shape Anchors can be manufactured using:


  • SS 304 – General corrosion and heat resistance

  • SS 310 – Superior high-temperature resistance (up to 1100–1200°C)

  • Inconel & other alloys – For extreme temperature and corrosion environments


Our anchors are available in various diameters, leg lengths, and welding configurations, all tailored to your project’s lining thickness and installation method.
