Heat chamber lining

A wall of a heat chamber comprising a support surface and a heat insulating lining extending generally parallel to the support surface, the lining being formed of at least one row of modules of fibrous ceramic heat insulating material, each of said modules comprising an elongated module rod having a longitudinal axis and a length of material folded over said module rod to define two side portions with a bight portion, the modules being arranged in side-by-side relation with said module rods extending generally parallel to each other and with the bight portions located adjacent to said support surface, each of said module rods including at least one mounting tab extending outward from each of said module rods, said tab having an aperture formed therethrough along a predetermined axis which is offset and generally perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of said rod, elongated stack pin means passing through said modules having at least one straight pin portion dimensioned to be received within said aperture in said tab, said aperture dimensioned such that said tab is lockable on said pin portion by causing said tab to be cocked relative to said straight pin portion so as to bind therewith.

A mounting rod for supporting a module of fibrous ceramic blanket material to a heat chamber having an elongated hanger rod mounted thereto, said mounting rod comprising:

• an elongated straight rod having a longitudinal axis and at least one generally flat clip extending from said rod which is aligned in a plane generally parallel to the longitudinal axis thereof, said clip having an aperture formed therethrough along a predetermined axis which is offset from the longitudinal axis of said rod, said aperture operable to receive a hanger rod therethrough.
