Angol leírás:
Quarry tiles are unglazed tiles that are natural, durable and inexpensive. They are quite often used in settings of industrial companies, but you can use it for homes, too...
Quarry tile is made by bleeding clay with materials including shale to make a coarse mixture. This is then run through a machine called an extruder, to make tiles that are very dense. The tiles are cut, then they are fired at a high temperature, which changes the composition of the clay, and creates a hard, heavy tile that is very strong. The most common shades of quarry tile are oranges and reds, although you occasionally will see grays and greens, too.
The underside of a quarry tile is usually ridged, which helps it adhere to grout. The tile's surface looks coarse because it isn't glazed. This surface helps to encourage traction, which is helpful in areas like kitchens and pathways.
Quarry tile is used as a traditional name for the clay tiles that are extruded from shale or clay. The tiles usually have properties very similar to red stoneware, and they usually measure about 6 inches square.
