    Default Great place for firebrick and insulation in michigan

    Building my fuel tank arch and was worried about cost since this my secound year and got the bug bad. Shipping on ebay was expensive started to check around and someone at work told me about a place in plainwell just north of kalamazoo. Riverview Refractory Services Inc. has everything you need to insulate and brick your arch and he has things left over from jobs that he will give you a good deal. Well worth checking out. His number is 269-685-8923. I purchase two inch fiber insulation from him and 3 inch brick and a lot of advice to put it togather. Hope this helps all of you.

    Good info! Also Consumers Concrete in Kalamazoo has firebrick and Heat Stop cement adhesive in stock. Consumers Concrete and Alro Steel are less than 5 miles from each other, basically all you need other than a pan.
