Imperial Mfg Group Usa Inc KK0076 Black Cement Mortar 10.3 Oz

Product Description

The IMPERIAL MFG GROUP USA INC KK0076 is a high-temperature black silicate ceramic cement mortar supplied in a 10.3 oz cartridge. It is formulated specifically to bond fiberglass rope gaskets to wood stove doors, steel, and cast iron surfaces. The cement has a creamy, smooth consistency for easy application and delivers superior adhesive strength after heat cure. It withstands continuous temperatures up to 2,000 degrees F (1,093 degrees C), making it suitable for the extreme thermal cycling found in solid-fuel heating appliances. Hearth service technicians and stove installers use this product during gasket replacement and door seal maintenance.

This cement mortar is designed for residential and light-commercial hearth applications. Primary use cases include resealing worn or damaged fiberglass rope gaskets on wood stoves, pellet stoves, and fireplace inserts where the door frame is steel or cast iron. It is applied directly from the cartridge using a standard caulk gun, making it well-suited for in-home service calls. The product is packaged individually as a single 10.3 oz cartridge (sold in cases of 12 from the supplier).

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by hearth technicians or qualified stove service professionals. Before applying, allow the stove to cool completely and remove all ash and debris from the door channel. Apply a uniform bead of cement into the gasket channel, seat the fiberglass rope firmly, and allow the cement to cure through an initial low-temperature burn before running the appliance at full output. Follow the stove manufacturer's service guidelines and local fire code requirements during gasket replacement.
