FYI - We have more refractories in stock than we have online. Occassionally a supplier runs low on a product we usually keep in stock, and if our inventory is low, sometime we find alternatives. If you get in a pickle send us an email with your project details (support@canadianforge.com) or send Sean a quick text @ 780-974-4309 and he'll call you back promptly (he tries!).
