The tape shown in the video is not often used, even by manufacturers, in the U.S. The door rope will seal without it. What is likely to be difficult is cleaning the rope channel. Nothing works as fast and effectively as a wire wheel in an angle grinder - and compressed air is invaluable for blasting of debris from the door. Obviously, proper safety equipment is crucial. If your door cannot be removed I would write a letter to the manufacturer and tell them to specialize in something simpler, like trashcans.

I worked for my first entire year at Tenneco feeding pipes to 2 robots to get bent. They could've used your wisdom.

[@imkranlopez5426]

Lol! Just like KUKA should stick to making dump trucks, because their robots suck. But a wire wheel on a drill works too.

[@thardyryll]

@@imkranlopez5426 A drill will run a wire wheel for sure, but the ergonomics aren’t great. Also, every wire wheel will eventually start throwing bits of wire, and the guard on a mini grinder will keep you from becoming a human pincushion. I’ve pulled plenty of wire bits out of my clothing even WITH a guard. I admit to being a big fan of mini grinders - I have seven or eight, each fitted with a different attachment: wire wheel, wire cup, cutting disk, etc. Nothing gets as old as having to make do with a single grinder and constant switching. If you showed a chef a pile of knife blades and told him he had to make do with a single handle he would quit on the spot.

[@thardyryll]

@@leeetchells609Heck, now I have nine. Bought a Makita 18-volt battery job and it is my go-to grinder. Amazing battery life. Maybe I need seven of them...

Ceramic tape it’s as rare as an honest politician ! Searched and searched absolutely cannot be found !

[@finesunset]

The tape is included within the "Stovax - Stove Care Products" pack. I purchased from Amazon recently.

[@stevesouthall4718]

Usely comes with rope and glue try ebay

[@Random-rt5ec]

Wow I never heard of ceramic tape - that is a great idea makes for a much neater, professional looking & probably better functioning seal. I am going to order some ceramic tape right away so I can finish getting my stove ready for the next heating season.

GREAT VIDEO VERY EDUCATIONAL 👍👍👍

The least of my problems is removing dust and "day-bree". The existing rope is a nightmare and like cemented in. Was hoping for a chemical suggestion to soften or loosen it. Was about to take a big torch to burn it out and realized how pointless that would be!

[@jnictv1075]

A hammer and a flat screw drivers can easily get it out. That's how I got mine out and it was cemented in

Very helpful 😊

[@rushertv]

Is the "ceramic end tape" available separately? I can see this makes trimming the gasket material much easier and more precise.

[@anissazichella5292]

Ceramic and tape where to get it

[@jasminewok1086]

Btw I went to a local wood burner shop to get the rope and they gave me the ceramic tape there.

[@myalumpro]

Thank you

[@sandykay8699]

where can I get the ceramic tape? I cant find it anywhere. Great video

[@eternallearner4753]

Excellent video. Thank you.

[@philipjohnson8064]

Can you give me the info on the tape you used on the Rope and where to purchase it Thanks

[@UnionStreetKid]

Hi thanks, great video. By the way where can I get "ceramic end tape"?

[@neiltheken]

SurvivalDan I ordered some rope for my burner which is identical to the one in the video, and the rope came with glue & end tape for about £15 on eBay.

[@kaywatson9349]

Al show stoves that can have the doors removed. Mine can't be removed.

[@valeriebestford7383]

how often should you renew rope on fires

[@freedomisfromtruth]

Hopefully before the carbon monoxide detector starts going off.

[@WillsM85]

No precaution for asbestos???

[@ArdentlyGrant]

Couldn't find any of these products on the website. Oh well

[@Milnero]

I have the Stockton 6 does the air circulation valve at top move fully to the right as mine stops short by about 5mm?

[@fireplaceproductscouk]

Great video!

[@michaelkbolton]

thankyou

[@calypsohandjack9278]

How do you know if the rope is asbestos?

[@forza223bowe5]

By test

In the US, ours is fiberglass

Who has a wood stove and no carbon monoxide detector? Ours started rising then realized door seal was worn.

[@ebgwd]

Me

[@shermanhofacker4428]

All that happens when the door seal leaks is the stove burns hotter. No rise in CO levels.

Me.. and we have 2 houses - 4 wood stoves..
