fire brick cement?

robclay26

Hi,

am putting firebricks in an out door oven and was wondering what to use to bond the bricks to the concrete block walls of the fire place?

is there anything like a cement/binder/plaster in powder form that you add water and mix

thanks for your help

What’s the heat rating on that? Why do you consider us specialist compared to another fire cement out of curiosity.? Not sure if that is powder form either. I could be wrong

I've used this before in my fireplace to make some repairs

Those are all pre mixed I have used them all I found the mix a little dry for working with bricks but it did give good results to be fair.
How big is the oven you will be making as you might need a fair few tubs.

thanks for that, I cannot find replacement fire bricks for my 20 yr old woodburning stove and this should do the trick to fix the broken ones I have in the stove

Hi Goat
Stove fire bricks are very easy to find any diy merchant should stock them.

Robclay 70 could be a bit much for the premixed stuff.
Id ask in a builders providers for a cement additive,
