Replacement Ceramic Glass for Kent TileFire Stove – 12 9/16" x 8 15/16"

Overview:

Replace damaged or broken glass in a Kent TileFire stove with this custom-cut ceramic replacement glass. The panel measures 12 9/16" wide by 8 15/16" high and is 3/16" thick. It features a subtle amber tint and is designed to withstand temperatures up to 1250°.

Ceramic glass is suited to the high-temperature environment found in wood, coal, and pellet stoves and is manufactured to resist thermal shock from extreme temperature changes. Proper fit and installation are essential because the glass and surrounding mounting components expand as the appliance heats.

Key Features:

• Custom-cut ceramic replacement glass for the Kent TileFire stove
• 12 9/16" wide x 8 15/16" high
• 3/16" thick
• Withstands temperatures up to 1250°
• Subtle amber tint
• Designed to resist thermal shock from extreme temperature changes
• Ceramic glass withstands up to three times the heat of tempered glass

Important Information:

Allow at least 1/8" of room for thermal expansion when installing the replacement glass. Insufficient clearance can cause the glass to expand against surrounding components and break.

Do not over-tighten screws or mounting hardware. Metal hardware also expands when exposed to high temperatures, and excessive pressure against the glass can cause damage.

Ceramic glass should not be used as a substitute for tempered glass on fireplace doors unless the appliance or door is specifically approved for ceramic glass. Never install ceramic glass on a factory-built or prefab fireplace unless the unit is heater rated and the manufacturer permits ceramic glass. Always consult the appliance owner's manual before replacing the original glass type.
