Harry,

For a UK supplier, try ALEC TIRANTI Ltd.

They are based in Theale, near Reading, Berkshire.

Contact info: Tel. 0118 930 2775

I have previously purchased rubber from them (RTV31) that they claim can
handle up to 316 degrees C. But I've poured at higher temperatures, say
350 - 400 degrees C. I know that they do other rubbers, so they may be
able to help for your 800 degrees F requirement.

Allan.
