Refractory cement - also known as Castable Refractory or Fireplace Cement, is a high-heat tolerant refractory material that is designed for castable refractory cement pizza ovens, fire pits and backyard forges.  Refractory cement is able to withstand temperatures in excess of 2500°, which is roughly 2x hotter than you will ever get your pizza oven.

Refractory cement is designed for THICK refractory applications like pizza oven construction, building a forge or even making your own fire bricks.  This product is NOT firebrick mortar.

Refractory Cement Recipe - Unlike High-Temperature MORTAR that you can make with common and locally purchased materials (see our High-Temperature Mortar Recipe)... Refractory cement is NOT something you can make yourself with sand, cement, lime, etc...  No matter what you read on Google or watch on YouTube - if you make a refractory cement blend, it will fail.  Guaranteed!
