When building or renovating a heating appliance, it is useful to know which refractory materials to choose for your fireplace and cooker. These products can be found in the Vitcas brand shop.
For the construction and maintenance of heating equipment , refractory materials for cookers that are distinguished by their resistance to high temperatures and direct contact with fire are essential. The choice of these products depends on the type of cooker, its intended use and the temperature that will prevail in it. The basic materials are vermiculite slabs, as well as high-temperature kiln glue. The slabs are used as a structural element of the hearths, as well as the casing of the cookers. They are lighter than bricks and easier to work with. Fireproof adhesives are distinguished by their ability to retain their properties, even under extreme thermal conditions. They bond different surfaces together perfectly and are easy to apply. Fireproof materials for cookers can be found in the extensive range on offer in the Vitcas shop.
Fireproof materials needed for fireplaces
