Fire pit bricks, also known as refractory bricks are used in blast furnaces because of their low thermal conductivity and insulate the heat from the furnace.
Fire pit bricks provide double the benefit of making the furnace hotter and more efficient, as well as protecting the outside of the furnace from excess heat.
This type of brick is much denser than regular bricks and goes through a kiln process to be able to withstand high temperatures.
There are 2 types of fire bricks, hard brick and soft brick. Hard bricks are very dense and durable and used for their structural qualities. They can be found most often as the main building component of large kilns, chimneys, fireboxes and burner ports.
Where are Fire Pit Bricks Used?
Fire pit bricks are frequently used to construct kilns, furnaces and other high temperature enclosures. The refractory brick reduces heat loss and the chance of an unintended fire.

Concrete pavers or patio slabs are a good idea for setting your fire pit on. Concrete won’t catch fire, plus they are heavy and sturdy enough to provide stability. Make sure the fire pit isn’t wobbly – check the level and dig them in if necessary. Fire-resistant pit mats are a great solution out on grass.
