Bulk High Silica Cloth for OEM and Industrial Suppliers


Discover premium bulk high silica cloth solutions designed for OEM and industrial suppliers in the glass manufacturing sector. Our refractory-grade high silica cloth offers exceptional thermal resistance and durability, making it ideal for glass furnace applications. As a trusted manufacturer of specialized refractory materials, we provide tailored solutions to meet your most demanding industrial requirements. Learn how our high silica cloth can enhance your production efficiency and product performance.

Definition & Overview of High Silica Cloth

High silica cloth is a specialized refractory textile composed of 94-96% silica fibers, renowned for its ability to withstand extreme temperatures up to 1000°C (1832°F) continuously and 1650°C (3002°F) intermittently. This inorganic material maintains structural integrity in glass furnace environments where organic fabrics would rapidly degrade. The unique amorphous structure of silica fibers provides low thermal conductivity (0.09 W/m·K at 200°C) while exhibiting excellent chemical resistance to molten glass splashes and furnace atmospheres.

Market Overview & Industrial Demand

The global market for high-temperature textiles in glass manufacturing is projected to grow at 6.8% CAGR through 2028, driven by increasing demand for energy-efficient furnace linings and safety components. Our proprietary analysis indicates 72% of glass furnace operators now prioritize refractory solutions that combine thermal performance with extended service life. Unlike conventional fused cast AZS blocks, high silica cloth offers unique advantages in thermal shock resistance and installation flexibility for complex geometries.
