Industrial furnaces used in metal heat treating, glass manufacturing, foundry operations, and petrochemical processing relied heavily on asbestos insulation to retain heat and protect workers from extreme temperatures. Refractory brick, asbestos blankets, asbestos rope door seals, and asbestos insulating cement were standard construction materials in furnaces produced by Ajax, Ipsen, Lindberg, Surface Combustion, and others. Maintenance workers who replaced worn asbestos lining materials in these furnaces were among the most heavily exposed.
