More details & specifications

Neoceram ® & Pyroceram ®
Today's high efficiency stoves and fireplaces produce intense heat. Ordinary tempered glass withstands temperatures up to approximately 500° F, however higher levels of heat may cause it to crack, shatter or explode.
With the transparency of glass and the heat-resistant characteristics of ceramic, ceramic products like Neoceram® & Pyroceram® can tolerate continuous temperatures up to 1292° F - nearly three times the heat resistance of tempered glass.  These products also have almost a zero thermal expansion making them an excellent choice for applications when there is the probability of high heat and cold shock.  Choice of product may be determined by required size. 

Additional heat resistant products -

Tempered Glass - 1/8", 3/16",1/4", 3/8",1/2", & 3/4" thickness

Borosilicate - 1/8", 3/16",1/4" thickness

Mica - a fire proof, infusible, incombustible and non- flammable and can resist temperatures of 600-C to 900-C,depending on the type of mica. It has low heat conductivity, excellent thermal stability and may be exposed to high temperatures without noticeable effect. .003-.005" thickness

Fiberglass Gasketing material
