The 2 kg tube delivers a compact, ready‑to‑use solution for professionals and DIY enthusiasts who require reliable performance in demanding thermal environments.

Key Technical Features

• Heat‑Resistant Composition: Formulated with a proprietary blend of silica, alumina, and calcium silicate, the cement withstands temperatures up to 1200 °C, making it ideal for stoves, furnaces, and other high‑heat installations.
• Rapid Setting Time: The product sets quickly, typically within 30–45 minutes, allowing for efficient workflow and minimal downtime during construction or repair.
• Strong Bonding Strength: Provides a durable bond to a wide range of substrates, including brick, stone, concrete, and metal fire‑brick panels.
• Low Shrinkage: Designed to minimize cracking and maintain structural integrity under thermal cycling.
• Water‑Resistant: Once cured, the cement resists moisture penetration, which is essential for maintaining performance in damp or humid conditions.

Ideal Applications

The 2 kg tube is perfect for:

• Stove and Fireplace Repairs: Filling gaps, sealing joints, and restoring the integrity of traditional wood‑burning stoves.
• Furnace and Kiln Construction: Lining interior surfaces to protect against high temperatures.
• Flue and Chimney Repairs: Sealing cracks in flues, chimneys, and other vertical conduits.
• Industrial Heat‑Resistant Projects: Applications in boilers, ovens, and other heat‑exposed equipment.
• Custom Firebrick Assemblies: Creating bespoke fire‑brick structures for artistic or functional purposes.

Installation Guidelines

1. Surface Preparation: Clean the area of dust, grease, and loose material. Ensure the substrate is dry and stable.
2. Mixing: Shake the tube thoroughly before opening. Mix with clean water in a ratio of approximately 1:3 (cement to water), adjusting for desired consistency.
3. Application: Apply the paste with a trowel or spatula, pressing firmly into joints or cracks. Use a brush to smooth the surface for an even finish.
4. Setting: Allow the cement to set for the recommended time before exposing it to heat. Avoid disturbing the area during this period.
5. Finishing: Once cured, the surface can be sanded or painted with heat‑resistant coatings if desired.

Safety and Handling

• PPE Recommended: Wear gloves and eye protection when handling the product to avoid skin irritation.
• Ventilation: Work in a well‑ventilated area to prevent inhalation of dust or fumes during mixing.
• Storage: Keep the tube sealed in a dry, cool place to maintain product integrity.
