Notes

Fusion recommends this as a better substitute for Ferro Frit 3124 than F-19 (Mar 2021). Yet this frit has a chemistry less similar to Ferro 3124 than F19.
This is the same as F-19 but with 2% less CaO. They do not release the chemistry of this so we just reduced the CaO and retotalled to 100.

The Fusion one has less surface tension and is flowing a little more. And it has larger bubbles, so Fusion must be using a different set of raw materials to source the chemistry (materials that either have a higher LOI or decompose to produce gases later in the firing). They do not supply the chemistry of Frit F621/19 and it is not shown on their website in 2021. But they recommended it to us as a substitute candidate for Ferro Frit 3124.
