Product Features and Benefits:
Owning a wood stove has a lot of benefits, but it also means maintenance! Your wood stove is most efficient when it is sealed tightly, but over time seals can break, degrade and overall become less and less efficient at keeping your home warm. When it’s time to replace your gasket, shop with us! Our gaskets are high quality and can handle temperatures up to 1000F (or 538C) and fraying and unraveling is minimum when you cut your gasket. With us, you also get the benefit of free shipping! Many companies are deceptive in their pricing by offering a low cost product, but then charging outlandish shipping and handling fees. We don’t think that’s right, that’s why the price you see is what you get!
Installing your new wood stove gasket is easy. Simply remove the old gasket and thoroughly clean the area, then use your choice in gasket adhesive to apply the new gasket. We recommend A. W. Perkins’ Black Furnace Cement as it can withstand the temperatures easily and blends in with almost any wood stove! As always, let us know how we can help you make your wood stove more efficient for the coming cold season.
Wood stoves burn more efficiently when they have a tight seal around the door and window. The gaskets on wood stoves are what create that tight seal, but over time some of them wear down and need replaced. Our replacement wood stove gasket is made from high quality fiberglass and is impregnated with black graphite to create a durable, but flexible gasket - even in the most abrasive of conditions.
Check your stove's owners manual to know the exact diameter of gasket you need.
To use:
Remove old gasket. Thoroughly clean the area. Use a gasket adhesive to attach the new gasket.
Adhesive:
We recommend you purchase a gasket cement to adhere the gasket to your stove or insert. Gasket cements are used not only as the "glue" to hold the gasket in place but can also be used to seal minor cracks and pin holes in the stove body.
It is not recommended that you use a sealant as an adhesive. High temperature silicone and sealants are not meant to be used as an adhesive or to fix your stove or insert.
