Plistix versus ITC-100.my findings KnifeDogs Forums
· Recently I relined my welding forge. While waiting for a new supply of ITC-100 to come in I was introduced to a product called Plistix.

· The ability to turn on and off your forge with the turn of a knob is very convenient as well. Most small forges will need a single propane torch to work metal but may need to have two burners to properly forge weld. In addition to 2 inches of ceramic blanket insulation reflective coatings like plistix will help reach welding temperatures.

ITC-100 vs. Plistix 900F vs. Satanite vs. Mizzou
· I like to build a forge with 1" Inswool (or what ever ceramic blanket that you have) then casting over it with about 1/2" of Kast-0-Lite 3 000 degree refractory.

Satanite is a morter and rather soft and not flux resistant. You will be patching often. Mizzou is a refractory and as such will help build up heatI ve been using Plistix 900F and ITC100 for a few years. I have no problem with Plistix and it cost 1/10th the price of ITC-100.
