High Temperature E-Glass Sleeves 700°C

E-Glass Sleeves, up to 700 °C

E-glass fibre has been in use since 1930, in large-scale industrial applications, as a high-temperature insulator for electrical conductors. E-glass fibres are the most widespread in use, whether in the textile industry or for composite materials, and are present in 90 % of reinforcements. This high-quality fibre is distinguished by its resistance to high temperatures and its excellent electrical insulating properties. This fibre is rot-proof, resistant to the most common chemical agents and dimensionally stable, even in the event of substantial variations in humidity and temperature.

E-glass filaments of diameter exceeding 9 μm can cause skin irritations. For this reason, E-glass fibre cords supplied are produced from textured and twisted strands of diameter ranging from 6 to 9 µm.

E-glass fibre sleeves are highly flexible, thereby facilitating the insertion of cables or pipes to be insulated. These sleeves are used up to 550 °C for the thermal protection and electrical insulation of cables and pipes.

Silicone-coated, lacquered or stainless steel-clad versions are available on request, for the improvement of mechanical and dielectric properties and the prevention of the loss of stray fibres.

Sleeves are available in standard diameters ranging from 12 to 60 mm, in braided or knitted versions. 

Applications of E-Glass Fibre Sleeves

• Sealing gaskets for industrial furnaces and boilers
• Thermal protection
• Electrical insulation of cables and pipes
