An array of tile assemblies is fixedly connected to a common waterwall panel to form a refractory liner for an incinerator. Each tile assembly includes a unitary, clip-type, metallic anchor, which is directly welded to the waterwall panel, and a solid refractory tile slidably connected to the anchor through a dovetail locking mechanism. The rear surface of the refractory tile includes a longitudinal rib from which projects a dovetail pin configured to receive the anchor. The longitudinal rib increases the overall thickness of the refractory tile through the region of interconnection with the anchor. In this manner, the anchor is suitably protected by the refractory tile from intense heat which may otherwise cause mechanical failure in the locking mechanism. Additionally, the solid construction of refractory tile both limits the presence of air gaps within the tile assembly and reduces the likelihood of tile fragmentation or cracking.
