Borosilicate Blocks for Chimney Liner Retrofit
Borosilicate Blocks for Chimney Liner Retrofit
(OP)
I am looking for information on manufacturers of borosilicate blocks commonly used for chimney liners. The only product I am aware of is Pennguard block manufactured by Hadek. It is an excellent productr, but some of our customers ask for alternate sources. If you are aware of other producers, please reply.

Borosilicate glass product is not listed on Pitssburgh Corning website http://pittsburghcorning.com/products/all-products...
Hadek's website states that they are suppliers of Pennguard. http://www.hadek.com/pennguard_block_lining_system
There is a difference between "supplier" and "manufacturer". In this case Pennguard is actually manufactured by Henkel and supplied by Pennguard

I would not be surprised if the same Henkel's product is also distributed through "private label" agreement unde rdifferent brand name.
What I am looking for is competitive products and their specs.

1)GI-180
http://www.ecocera.co.kr/en/page15.html
2)Boroblock which appears to be the same product as Korean GI-180 which suggests that it is private label of Ecocera, marketed in the US as Boroblock

Do you have experience with any of these products? Thanks.
