Single Wall Pipe

[thewoodlands]

Since this is my first year burning wood I have a question. I have heard about getting the pipe so hot it turns Cherry Red, how long and at what temps would you have to burn for this to happen.

Thanks

If one was burning palettes or carpentry scraps with the air open, not too long. Above 900 degrees in the pipe should start becoming dull red.

ZAP, I know you were looking at some of that pine on your property, and if you burn that when its well seasoned it can be just like pallet wood. When my wife of MIL forget to close the bypass on the liberty the single wall pipe above the stove can get so hot you can almost see through it! Thats one of the drawbacks to a stove with a bypass, if you forget to close it, the flames are going right up the pipe. But it makes for smokeless reloads wich is always nice.

How dangerous is that, when the pipe is glowing red?
