What's a typical value for the Thermal Conductivity of Graphite lining bricks (say in the 30 to 100 C range)? 

 

I've a marketing document from Diabon that says 150 W/mK (meter * Kelvin not milliKelvin). Cecolit reports 8 W/mK in their literature. Momentive claims 1500 W/mK for their special recipie.

 

A graph at Netzsch reports ~75 W/mK. Engineering toolbox reports 1.7 W/mK but they don't specify what form of "Carbon". 

 

I know the exact value will vary based on manufacturer but right now I only want an approximate estimate.  What's a good value to use in practice?  Does conductivity really vary so much for graphite based on variants?
