Installation notes

  1. 1Suitable for direct hot-face duty within the grade rating — no separate dense working lining required
  2. 2Use matching insulating mortar; a dense mortar joint will conduct heat straight through the wall
  3. 3Cut with a hand saw rather than a hammer and chisel; the structure is porous and chips
  4. 4Back up with CFI Group 16 where shell temperature needs to come down further
