Hi. New here and I know enough to be dangerous, which includes knowing that I don’t know much in the big scheme of things. I’m building a gas furnace that will be lined with 2 inches of ceramic blanket density #8 that I am going to cast a 1 inch refractory over. I’ve got some Girtech Firecast, but I’m a little shy of what I need, and want it to go a little farther. I’ve got some ground fireclay, and I’d like to get some opinions on adding some ground fireclay to the Firecast castable to get more refractory in the end. I am concerned it might compromise the strength of the refractory, but also think that there is probably a reasonable mixing ratio that it would still work out. Thoughts?
Thanks!

Frosty,
Is this the product you are suggesting? I want to double check before placing the order. Thanks for your time on this.

Also, I found a burner design a while back that I used in a small forge for knife making that tapped into a black iron pipe T using a MIG welding tip as the gas nozzle. Thinking back I recall that it was called the Frosty T. 2+2 being 4 and all, I’m thinking that must be your design. Very cool man, very cool. I made a larger burner with that design for my furnace I’m itching to fire up once I get the refractory squared away.
Thanks,
