We cannot recommend using this inside your fireplace, since it is a manufactured unit.

Perfect Solution

We needed to replace a refractory panel in our fireplace but replacement panels were no longer available. We thought we could use a premade panel that could be cut to size, but the panel we were replacing was much thicker than available panels. The solution was to cast our own and this product gave us a perfect result.

does its job, but...

I needed a refractory mortar for outside use and this was recommended and will presumably do the job. It was, however, very difficult to use, even with the very detailed instructions. It sets up so quickly that there is no moving the firebricks. Set one in place and it stays there.

Pros

For an outdoor fireplace it is important to have a refractory mortar that can hold up to rain and snow. Instructions are very good.

Cons

A little difficult to mix and very difficult to use. The bricks will not slide for adjustment once put in place-it sets very, very quickly.

Thank you Rutland... Easy to use and works great

I have an old large fireplace that uses large firebrick. Well after so many years, some of it broke. I needed a solution to cast my own bricks. Enter Rutland. Got it home, added the water, mixed in it's own bucket and pour into mold. Set up in a few hrs. Hard and ready to use in 24. Didn't have to heat treat it. Just had to bring up the heat in the fireplace gradually. We have been up and running the fireplace for 3 months now, everything is great. So happy we chose this castable cement.

Pros

Easy to use Fast setting No fuss
