Product Description

Stove Rope 6mm – Medium Density

Model: R6-1

Replace a worn or damaged stove seal with our 6mm medium-density stove rope. The rope provides a useful balance of firmness and flexibility. Therefore, it keeps its shape well while helping to create a secure seal around a compatible stove door or stove glass.

Unlike very soft rope, medium-density stove rope has more substance and does not stretch as easily during installation. As a result, you can measure and fit it more accurately into the stove’s rope channel.

We sell this 6mm stove rope by the metre. Simply enter the number of metres you require as the order quantity, and we will cut it as one continuous length whenever possible.

Why Choose Medium-Density Stove Rope?

Very soft stove rope can stretch while you fit it. Consequently, you may use too little rope and create an uneven seal. In contrast, medium-density rope provides greater firmness and holds its original shape more effectively.

This extra stability makes the rope easier to measure, cut and press into the channel. Furthermore, it helps you create a neat and reliable finish when you install it correctly.

Please note: Check your stove manual or measure the existing rope and channel before ordering. Different stove models require different rope diameters and densities.

Optional Stove Rope Adhesive

You will normally need a suitable high-temperature adhesive to secure the rope. Therefore, you can add our Reeds 50ml Stove Rope Adhesive to your order.

The adhesive is optional and does not come with the rope unless you select or purchase it separately.

How to Install 6mm Stove Rope

1. First, make sure the stove is completely cold and out of use.
2. Remove the old rope and scrape away the remaining adhesive.
3. Next, clean the channel to remove dust, grease and loose material.
4. Measure the old rope or channel and confirm that 6mm is the correct size.
5. Apply a thin, even bead of specialist stove rope adhesive to the channel.
6. Then, press the new rope firmly into place without stretching it.
7. Cut the rope to length and bring the two ends together neatly.
8. Finally, allow the adhesive to cure fully before using the stove.

Always follow the instructions supplied with your stove and adhesive. If you are unsure which rope size you need, contact the SNH Tradecentre team before ordering.

How Much Stove Rope Should I Order?

Measure the full distance around the rope channel and allow a small amount for trimming. For example, if you require three metres, select a quantity of three. We will then supply a three-metre continuous length whenever possible.
