Furnace Element Adhesive
Description:
The BCS #1087 & #1088 Element Adhesive is a special refractory adhesive that securely
bonds metal to refractory and bricks. It will also bond metal to metal, refractory to refractory and bricks to bricks.
Tired of having your heating elements falling out of their groove!?
Then bond them in with this special refractory adhesive. This adhesive is suitable
for furnaces operating up to 2700°F continuous, and 3000°F for short periods. It will work with both
Nichrome and Kanthal type coil elements.
How To Use It:
- Clean the grooves throughly of all loose refractory.
- Stretch element to length and install as usual.
- Roll a ball of adhesive about the size of a jelly bean. (More or less depending on the size of your grooves).
- Pull a short section of the element from the groove where it is to be adhered.
- Push the adhesive into the groove and refractory. Press in securely so the adhesive doesn't fall out.
- Replace the element in the groove. Press the element into the adhesive just enough to secure the backside
of the coils in place. If the adhesive squeezes thru the coil to the inside, push it back using a knife or
screwdriver. It is desirable to leave 1/2 the coil exposed to radiate heat, thus preventing a hot spot.
- Allow the adhesive to dry overnight. Slowly fire the unit to full temperature.
