This sealant uses a different, silicate-based chemistry: rather than degrading, it vitrifies under heat into a hard, ceramic-like mass that bonds tightly to the surrounding surface, forming a permanent, smoke-tight seal against carbon monoxide and flue-gas leakage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is supplied as a smooth black paste in a standard 310ml (10.5fl oz) cartridge that fits any standard-thread sealant\/caulking gun, and is thixotropic (non-slump), so it can be tooled into vertical and overhead joints without sagging. Once fully solidified and the appliance is brought into use, the joint should be slowly heated up to +250°C (482°F); as it reaches this temperature the sealant turns dark grey and becomes extra-hard, completing the cure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey Features\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRated to 1500°C (2732°F) maximum service temperature: engineered specifically for solid-fuel stove and flue joints where ordinary silicone sealants fail.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSilicate-based formula that vitrifies under heat into a rigid, ceramic-like mass rather than degrading like a standard heat-resistant silicone.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eForms a permanent, smoke-tight seal that resists carbon monoxide and flue-gas leakage at static, non-moving joints.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThixotropic (non-slump) black paste that holds its shape when tooled into vertical or overhead joints.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSupplied in a 310ml (10.5fl oz) standard-thread cartridge, compatible with any standard sealant\/caulking gun.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNet weight of 724g (1.6lb) per cartridge.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChanges colour from black to dark grey and becomes extra-hard once heat-cured up to +250°C (482°F) in service.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBonds well to cast iron, mild steel, stainless steel, firebrick, concrete, stone and clay.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpecification\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eProperty\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eDetail\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaximum service temperature\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1500°C (2732°F)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCartridge size\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e310ml (10.5fl oz)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNet weight, per cartridge\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e724g (1.6lb)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eColour, as supplied \/ solidified\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBlack\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eColour, after heat-treatment\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDark grey, extra-hard\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCure type\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRigid, vitrifying (does not remain flexible)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRecommended post-cure heat-up\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSlowly to +250°C (482°F)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eJoint type\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eStatic (non-moving) joints only\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eApplication temperature\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e+5°C to +35°C (41°F to 95°F) ambient\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTypical Applications\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBecause it is formulated specifically for the sustained heat of solid-fuel appliances rather than general household or automotive use, this sealant is suited to hearth and flue jobs that sit well beyond the working range of an ordinary silicone.
