Homemade refractory recipeInsulation and Refractories
· I tried a DIY refractory made of perlite fireclay and portland cement once. Both the perlite and cement melt at high forging temperatures and I ended up with a real nifty-looking glassy substance. But it was real soft in the forge at temp. Perlite melts at 1850C or about 3300F.
I m pretty sure that won t work. You could use crushed firebrick instead of the perlite but you stiil need the clay (I think) The cheepest unsenwhatever you do DONT use portland best thing to use is fireclay most building supply places have it i have crushed up firebricks and used it asI tried a DIY refractory made of perlite fireclay and portland cement once. Both the perlite and cement melt at high forging temperatures and I eCould you elaborate why you shouldn t use portland Everyone seems to use it but is there a safety issue Or just that it doesn t work well I wasOh ok. I was misunderstanding what you wanted to use it for. I belive you it is recomended that you don t use cement as it can spall violently frportland will degrade too it fluxes when it gets up that hot and will crumble i have never used portland in any of my foundry furnaces or forges I ve done some more thinking and am leaning to a square urtuze or however you spell it style burner so that I could use the whole hard fire brickHmm- my propane forge has a liner made of portland cement clay dirt from the yard silica sand and perlite.

How to Make a Propane Forge 12 Steps (with Pictures
Turn on the propane slowly and the forge should ignite. Leave the forge at low power. Once the refractory is dry it needs to be cured. Don t operate the forge at full power until the refractory is cured. Run the forge at a lower temperature for 15-20 minutes to let the ceramic fibers and refractory lining "set up".

· Spray the ceramic fiber insulation down using water with a hand sprayer to wet it lightly. Next apply the Satanite to the wool using a paintbrush covering all exposed wool surfaces. To cure it you want to dry it slowly. First let the forge sit for a few hours minimum to air dry a little then fire up the forge just briefly and shut it down.

How To Make A Heat Treatment OvenIBUILDIT.CA
There s a knife that I want to make and having this heat treatment oven will ensure that the blade will be properly hardened. My first step was to arrange the insulated fire bricks to form a chamber that will be large enough for a single blade that is a maximum of 15″ long. These bricks are 9″ long 4-1/2″ wide and 2-1/2″ thick and
High Temperature InsulationRefractory Materials VITCAS
Insulation prevents the transfer of heat and so reduces the energy required to raise temperatures and protects adjacent materials from heat damage. Since the dangers of using asbestos were identified several alternatives have been developed for insulation in high temperature situations.

Claying Forges Coal forge linings anvilfire Forge
The bed of fuel provides sufficient insulation in most cases. Even thin walled cast iron forges hold up well without claying if they are used for light work and a sufficient fuel bed insulates the forge. Note that many old HD forges had the firepot set very low in a forge pan 6 to 8" (150 to 200mm) deep for very deep fires intended for heavy work.
