Abstract
Refractory fiber blanket blocks for electric furnaces having electrical heating elements mounted therewith by supports provide substantially improved insulation capabilities for electric furnaces when attached to the furnace walls. The support elements are in the form of holder members for receiving and support heating elements of the electric furnace and an arcuate spearing member which is capable of insertion into the insulative block at any desired location on an inner surface or hot face without requiring any anchoring structure for heating element support. The arcuate spearing member may take several forms and supports the heating element, engaging only the fiber blanket without anchoring structure for support.
