HomeSaver Heat Shield Spacers with Screws & Anchors
Use these spacers when mounting heat shields.
It is 47" wide, has a depth or "face" of 10", and the angled lip is 2 3/4" wide. It can be cut to size and comes predrilled and ready to mount. All necessary ceramic spacers, hardware and instructions are included. (For listed stoves, consult stove manual or manufacturer.)
UL Listed Heat-Fab Insulated Saf-T Thimble
The Saf-T Thimble features a solid-pack insulation that telescopes inward toward the wall, allowing for easy adjustment for wall thicknesses of 4" - 8 1/2". Choose from 6" or 8" models. Both
need a 16" wide by 17" high opening for installation.
Instructions are included.
UL Listed Insul-Flue Insulated Thimble
You need one thimble cover assembly per installation. The thimble cover assembly protrudes 13" into the room. The number of thimbles you need depends on the thickness of the combustible wall. The 8" long thimble is designed to pass through a wall with maximum thickness of 7". You can add an additional 8" by cementing two thimbles together with Rutland Stove and Gasket Cement so you can pass through walls clear up to 15" thick. Or you can cut the thimble down with a hacksaw for thinner walls. The Insul-Flue Thimble requires a 15" or 17" square opening for use with 6" diameter or 8" diameter pipe, respectively. the thimble cover assembly plate is 17" X 17" for the 6" thimble, and 19" X 19" for the 8" thimble. Complete instructions accompany each unit. Note: When ordering make sure to order both the thimble and the thimble cover assembly for a complete installation.
Galvanized Thimble (no picture available)
It's available in 6" and 8" diameters. The Black outside plate covers up to a 10"diameter hole. Simply insert it in the old thimble opening and tighten the expansion screw on the face of the insul-plug. The sides expand and create a tight fit inside the thimble opening. Easy! The 6" adjusts from 5 3/4" to 6 1/8". The 8" adjusts from 7 3/4" to 8 1/8". It can be removed by reversing the process.
These have one-piece spring handles for convenient adjusting.
A stable draft provides stable heat and efficient fuel consumption. It operates automatically. A flap swings open wider as draft increases, thereby letting in more air. And as draft reduces, the flap closes to reduce air. Our high-quality model is packed individually, each with its own tee included. Our barometric damper is available in 5" and 6" and 8" diameters. The 5" and 6" dampers are 24-gauge; and the 8" damper is 20-guage.
Self-Drilling Black Screws and Magnetic Chuck Driver
These are actual drill-bit-tipped black screws. The screws are black anodized steel- 1/2", #8. They have a combination slot/hex-drive head. Sold in packs of 500. The magnetic chuck driver fits a standard 1/4" for #8 screws and 5/16" for #10 screws.

The use of this handy
HomeSaver Stovepipe Shield allows you to reduce required single-wall
stovepipe clearances from 18" to 6". The stovepipe shield
attaches to the pipe with the ceramic spacers and screws
provided. This often eliminates the need to attach a
cumbersome shield directly to combustible surfaces nearby.
These useful ceramic
spacers are 1" long and 9/16" diameter. They are sold in packs
with 30 spacers, 30- 2 1/2" long #10 screws, as well as 30 plastic
anchors. They come in a nice display package that is
sturdy. 
This 24-ga. black
HomeSaver Mantel Shield attaches to the mantel and allows a
clearance reduction from 18" to 9" for stovepipe and from 36" to 18"
from the top of an unlisted stove, per NFPA 211 requirement.
The UL Listed Saf-T
Thimble allows single-wall stovepipe to pass through a combustible
wall. It attaches to the chimney therefore avoiding a
dangerous breach should the chimney settle and start to pull away
from the house. 
Use this thimble when you need to pass through a
combustible wall and into a masonry chimney. This unit is sold
in two parts, the thimble cover assembly and the thimble
itself. 
The insul-plug blocks
old, unused thimble holes in masonry chimneys. It provides a
thermal break from combustives and prevents downdrafts from entering
the room. the insul-plug is constructed of a ceramic based
fireproof insulating material. 
Even on airtight
stoves many people desire "old fashioned" cast-iron stovepipe
dampers which are located in the flue pipe.
Barometric dampers
stabilize flue draft by drawing "room air" into the flue. Why
do this? Too much draft causes erratic burning and wasted
fuel. 
Pop them in the
magnetic chuck driver and your variable-speed drill and away you go
- no pilot holes, no wasted time.
