More than enough adhesive, easy to fit & seal ends. Great all in one kit.

When my original door rope wore out, it concerned me that I might unintentionally replace it with an inferior product. A worn rope may allow more oxygen into the stove and cause over fuelling.I believe this kit is as good as what was installed at the factory. The adhesive performed well and and there's plenty of it. I can feel the door shuts tightly again requiring more pressure, I know it's sealing properly.Top fitting tips:1. Remove the door from the stove, they often just lift off the hinges but otherwise there may be a small securing screw. Lay it down on old news paper ready for prepping.2. Take a photo of the rope lay out to match later on. The rope ends usually join together at the bottom of the door.3. Remove the rope and clean the groove of old glue with with a wire brush. I used a brass spark plug cleaning brush. A final wipe down with alcohol or acetone for good adhesion. It's also a good time to give the door a thorough clean getting into areas that are usually hard to get to.4. Measure the old and new rope to make sure they're the same. I used calipers, remember the old seal would have been squashed slightly and may measure smaller.5. Practice laying the rope in the groove, it's important not to stretch the rope. Wrap the fire tape around where you need to cut and cut in the middle of the tape with sharp scissors. This will stop the ends of the rope untangling and freying. It will also ensure the ends butt up again each other. Avoid wrapping the tape around too tightly it may squash the ends too much and prevent a good seal.6. Squeeze the adhesive into the groove then fit the rope.Lay the rope in gently pressing it down and where the two ends meet put a piece of adhesive tape over to seal the join.7. I've read different advice on glue trying times so I just left mine over night before refitting the door.Bonus tips:1. When I refitted the door I cleaned up the hinges with fine fine wire wool and greased them up with high temperature copper grease. This can be found at an automotive store easily as regular grease would just burn off. The door no longer squeaks when opening and closing.2. I noticed an area of my old door rope was more worn than others. I felt for burs or sharp egdes on the stove where the rope presses against it and then smoothed them out with 800 grit sand paper.3. When the stove isn't in use for long periods of time leave the door open slightly. This will take pressure of the rope seal and prevent compression.Enjoy your nice and efficient wood burning stove.

Exactly what I needed, it done the job!

Great fit for our log burner and stuck really well so far (4 month)

Ease of use:Although it was thinner than the one it replaced, it did the job.

Bought for a contura stove. The 8mm fits perfectly. We looked up you tube as how to install. Quality seems sturdy hope it lasts another 5 or so years like the other did.
