What is Refractory Ring and wall

I have been told I must replace the refractory ring and wall in my heating system?

What exactly is this?

Only Jason, me and you,

(boiler guy) - ever even heard of Timkens, much less worked on 'em...(;-o)

I think at most, I had maybe 15 total in the 40-years I was in the biz, that I actually had as regular customers; maybe 3 or 4 more as "casuals." They were incredibly simple, yet ever so vexing.

I still have hook ignitors and a few "wall plate/"targets" left - or did until recently.

It's not that I never heard of them or worked on them it's just once I able to put my back to one I never had the urge to look back.
