Re: Where to buy fire bricks and refractory cement?

Just to remind people who want a quick kill on a simple charcoal forge,.....The supermarket chain Wilkinsons usually have fire bricks in three shapes/sizes and tubs of firecement. They are very competitively priced,.....the firecement was half the Wickes price when I looked a few months back in the Romford branch.

Re: Where to buy fire bricks and refractory cement?

My Fire Bricks were solid and Refractory Cement was easy to use. I had a tub of Fire Cement which was of excellent quality from original manufacturers in Bristol.

Re: Where to buy fire bricks and refractory cement?

If you are in Scotland or the North of England, a company in Burnbank, Hamilton, VTS, sell this stuff (and they also do vacuum heat treating of metals.....and they'll do small production runs) Very, very knowledgable and helpful.
The links are :-
VACUA-THERM
5, Parkburn Industrial Estate,
Burnbank,
Hamilton,
ML3 0QQ
01698 825168/9

They supply furnaces, firebricks, kilns, cements, clays as well.

No connection, just a very happy customer.

cheers,
Toddy
