I visited a dealer today who carried VC stoves and Dutchwest by VC. I was there to look at the refractory assemblies in the VC stoves I read about and to look at the Dutchwest stoves.
The opposite door sides had a flat piece of what looked like refractory. Back to my desk and pc, I upload the Dutchwest stove parts list and they show these flat pieces as "wear plates". They looked like they were made of the same refractory material as the refractory assemblies on the VC stoves.
Anyone know what this material is made of and how delicate or prone to breaking as the VC refractory material?
By the way the DW was a non-cat model.
Thanks!
Bill
