Has anyone used Superwool 607

[thebadger]

I found this product on ebay. I'm on a tight budget and can get 100 sq ft for about $140. I want to use 2 inches of blanket plus vermiculite

This is the "Body Fluid soluable" non-ceramic fiber blanket. It is manufactured by Thermal Ceramics Corp. This Roll is the Superwool 607 Max product rated at 2192 F degrees continuous use. It is the 1" x 24" x 25' full roll of new material in the 8# density.

What do the experts think? I don't want to go "off plan" to have my oven burn down

Thanks

Dick,

From the specs and the weight, it looks very like this product will suit your needs. Having said that, though, I've never used it. Try to find a spec sheet on it and have a careful look at the suggested applications. Still, it's certainly rated a high enough continuous use temp to work.

I bought a roll from the e-bay high temp refractory store. Details seems reasurring for oven needs.

Acoma,

Do you think it would work fine then? I'm thinking about 2 inches of the 8#. I was having trouble finding "Thermal Conductivity" data for Insulfrax.

Thanks
Dick
BTW - your oven looks great!

Absolutely. 2" wrapped around oven using the 8# is perfect. Cross fold the layers of insulation though. Several oven photos will show the process, and the members are more than glad to explain.
