Review on FireBlack 125: The Ultimate High-Temp Replacement Gasket for Big Green Egg (XL) - Self-Stick Nomex with LavaLock Technology by Shelly Day

Revainrating 1 out of 5

!Glue is very weak! Untenable.

Glue is less sticky than a postal note. This is totally unacceptable. Duct tape has a stronger adhesive than this material. I'll give them the benefit of the doubt and Revane will send me another. If the next one is just as bad I'll either go back and get another one or buy some high temp glue to stick it on. I now recommend avoiding this product. Update: I exchanged it for a new one. The new one doesn't stick either. I tried to use regardless. It stayed in place but now after 3 months it is leaking like a sieve. Thanks that this gasket can not withstand temperatures of 400-500 degrees either. Update 2: 9 months later and the seal is falling apart. Avoid this product!
