Overview
ISO 5019-5:1984 - Refractory bricks - Dimensions - Part 5: Skewbacks (Sommier) is an international standard published by ISO (first edition 1984-09-15) that specifies standard dimensions for two types of skewbacks (French: sommier) intended for use with refractory arch bricks. The document was prepared by ISO/TC 33 (Refractory materials).
Key topics and requirements
- Two standard sizes: The standard defines skewbacks for use with refractory bricks of 64 mm and 76 mm height.
- Reference drawings and volumes: Dimensional representations are given in two figures; the 64 mm skewback has a listed volume of 5.57 dm³, and the 76 mm skewback a volume of 4.72 dm³.
- Compatibility: These skewbacks are intended to be used together with the corresponding series of arch bricks whose dimensions are specified in ISO 5019-2.
- Tolerances: Dimensional tolerances are not fixed in the standard and must be agreed between buyer and supplier, allowing contractual flexibility for manufacturing and application needs.
- Recommendation: Adoption of the 76 mm series is strongly recommended. The standard also notes the existence of North American skewback formats with dimensions very close to those in ISO 5019-5.
Applications and users
ISO 5019-5 is directly useful to:
- Refractory brick manufacturers - for consistent production and correct volumes for skewback pieces.
- Furnace, kiln and boiler designers - to specify compatible skewbacks when designing arches and supports in refractory linings.
- Installation contractors and bricklayers - to select correct skewback sizes to match arch brick series (per ISO 5019-2).
- Procurement specialists and spec writers - for clear product specifications and commercial agreements on tolerances.
- Standards bodies and testing labs - for cross-reference and harmonization with other refractory dimensions.
Related standards
- ISO 5019-2 - Refractory bricks - Dimensions - Part 2: Arch bricks (reference for compatible arch brick dimensions).
- ISO 5019 series and documents produced by ISO/TC 33 (Refractory materials) for broader guidance on refractory brick formats and dimensions.
This concise guidance on ISO 5019-5:1984 helps ensure consistent sizing and interchangeability of skewbacks in refractory linings, aiding manufacturers, designers and purchasers in achieving reliable furnace and kiln construction.

Foreword
IS0 (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of
national standards bodies (IS0 member bodies). The work of preparing International
Standards is normally carried out through IS0 technical committees. Every member
body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has
the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, govern-
mental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.
Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to .
the member bodies for approval before their acceptance as International Standards by
the IS0 Council. They are approved in accordance with IS0 procedures requiring at
least 75 % approval by the member bodies voting.
International Standard IS0 5019/5 was prepared by Technical Committee lSO/TC 33,
Refractories.
