Stress cracking sounds familiar, but I feel like it might not be the main concern for refractory anchors in high heat.

Ugh, I'm drawing a blank on the specific failure modes for refractory materials. I'll have to make an educated guess based on my general knowledge of materials science. Hopefully, I can narrow it down to the best choice.

Okay, I've got this. Refractory anchors need to resist oxidation at high temps to maintain their structural integrity. I'm confident that option D is the correct answer here.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about this one. Refractory materials need to withstand a lot of different stresses in high-temp environments. I'll have to think through the key failure modes and see which one best fits the question.

This seems like a straightforward question about the properties required for refractory anchors in high-temperature applications. I'll carefully review the answer choices and think about which type of failure mechanism would be most relevant.

I'm gonna go with C. Stress cracking is the real enemy here. These anchors need to be tough as nails to handle the crazy stresses of those furnaces.
