Imperial Mfg Group Usa Inc GA0186 Gasket Rope Kit

Product Description

The IMPERIAL MFG GROUP USA INC GA0186 is a replacement gasket rope kit designed to reseal doors on wood, pellet, oil, and gas stoves. The rope measures 5/8 inches in diameter and 6 feet in length, providing enough material to replace worn or compressed door seals that compromise combustion efficiency and safe operation. Rated to withstand temperatures up to 1,000 degrees F, this gasket rope maintains its integrity under sustained high-heat conditions typical of solid-fuel and gas appliances. The kit includes a 2-ounce bottle of gasket cement for secure adhesion during installation. Technicians and service pros use this kit to restore proper door sealing and prevent heat loss or smoke spillage at the door frame.

This gasket rope kit is suited for residential and light-commercial heating appliance service. It fits a range of door types on wood-burning stoves, pellet stoves, oil-fired units, and gas stoves where a woven rope-style gasket is the OEM seal format. Typical installations involve removing the old compressed gasket, cleaning the door channel, applying the included cement, and pressing the new rope into place. The 6-foot length covers most standard stove door perimeters in a single piece or with minimal splicing.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a qualified hearth technician or HVAC service professional familiar with solid-fuel and gas appliance servicing. Allow the stove to cool completely before beginning work, and ensure the gas supply is shut off if servicing a gas-fired unit. Remove all remnants of the old gasket and clean the channel thoroughly before applying cement to ensure a proper bond. Follow the stove manufacturer's door-compression guidelines and allow the cement to cure fully before returning the appliance to service.
