No idea to your question, but is there a risk of the heat damaging the PC?
If you are having it black I'd be tempted to ask if they can do a Japanned finish - although it might warp I guess.

Apparently powdercoat is heat resistant to 550c (random first google hit) if my fire gets that hot about a metre away then it probably means my house is on fire.
I did consider trying to paint it in stove paint, but given there will be about 30 75cm high bars I figured that would get very annoying very quickly.

Not sure of the best place to ask this, so defaulting to here.
I am having a fireguard made out of mild steel, it will be a combination of 15mm box and around 12mm tube, both in 1mm thick steel. Does anyone know if there is a minimum thickness of steel that can be powdercoated?
