Silicate Fibre Sleeve 1,100 °C

Silicate Fibre Sleeves, heat-resistant up to 1,100 °C

Silicate is a mineral made of silicon dioxide (SiO₂) and other metallic oxides, such as calcium, magnesium, aluminium, etc. Silicate fibres pose no health risk when handling with their diameter of 9 μm.

Silicate fibre contains no toxic substances. In addition to being inorganic, its great mechanical and thermal properties make it an interesting alternative to ceramic fibre or to products with asbestos. Its resistance to high temperatures outperforms that of other materials, such as biosoluble or glass fibre. 

Silicate fibre textiles offer different thermal, physical and mechanical properties depending on their level of silicon dioxide. The silicate fibre sleeves proposed by Final Advanced Materials can therefore withstand operating temperatures up to 1,000 °C and peak temperatures up to 1,100 °C. They are used in the industry for heat protections, for the insulation of cables and piping but are also as an alternative to asbestos products. 

Our silicate fibre sleeves are available with inner diameters ranging from 1 to 100 mm. Different declinations of the silicate fibre are possible for silicate fibre sleeves to adapt to every application.

For more information regarding the availability, refer to the technical data sheet.
