Hello everyone,
I am working on getting things together for this season (not sure why i always wait till the last minute...) and i need to replace the door gasket on my homemade arch.
It is equipped with auf and aof and the firebox tends to get a little hot which leads to the door gasket turning to powder which leads to the door warping. (won't let that happen again :cry:)
The gasket that i have been using is just the fiberglass stuff that you buy at hardware store for regular wood stoves and I believe it only has a 1000 deg rating. any ideas on a better gasket to use? where to find it? It needs to be the flat variety and at least a 1/8th inch thick.
Thanks.


Wendall.

Sorry it took me so long to get back with some pics. Been kinda of busy... I think some sorta of ceramic based seal would work best not sure where to find it though...https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20170127/4047f169ae1b2887087639dcda5d7094.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20170127/ad9e96de1f04e5542c0d27c369955975.jpg
