Silicate Fibre Sleeve 1,200°C

Silicate Fibre Sleeves, up to 1,200 °C

Silicate fibre products are inorganic, and contain no toxic substances (asbestos-free) or irritants. The good thermal and mechanical properties of these products make them excellent replacements for asbestos-based products. With a diameter ranging from 6 to 9 μm, these fibres pose no hazard to health.

Silicate fibre sleeves are fire-resistant, radiation-resistant, and have a low coefficient of thermal expansion, even at very high temperatures. Low in density, they show very good resistance to chemical agents, particularly to acids. In comparative terms, silicate fibre-based textiles have superior high-temperature resistance to biosoluble fibre textiles.

S98 sleeves are resistant in applications at temperatures up to 1,200°C. They are principally employed as thermal or acoustic insulators, and for the reinforcement of composite materials. 

S94 sleeves are resistant to temperatures of 1,100 °C, and are excellent thermal insulators. They are ideal for the protection of cables and pipes against slags. 

Application of Silicate Sleeves

• Insulation of cables
• Insulation of pipes
• Electrical insulation
• Heat protection
• Asbestos-free alternative
