Product description
Closed-cell nitrile rubber insulation laminated with aluminium foil for ducts and cooling equipment, with an adhesive backing option.
Product selection and use guide
Insulflex Aluminium Foil Duct Insulation belongs to the elastomeric insulation range; tubing and sheet forms have different cutting and joint requirements. Sheet or roll form can be cut around ducts, broad surfaces and fittings.
How to choose
Determine thickness from pipe or duct conditions, ambient moisture and condensation-control objectives. Match product series, adhesive and support details. Plan cutting patterns and continuously bonded edges; do not rely on bulky overlaps alone.
Applications to consider
Consider AC or refrigeration piping and duct surfaces as appropriate to the exact type and design. Joints and fittings need the same attention as straight runs.
Use limitations
Closed-cell material does not make open joints vapour-tight. Do not stretch tubing or assume tape alone suits every joint; check outdoor protection requirements.
Pre-order checklist
- Send operating conditions as project requirements, surface dimensions and ambient conditions.
- Confirm thickness, series, adhesive, support details and surface protection.
- Send the surface area, fitting details and joint adhesive requirements.
Frequently asked questions
Does a larger pipe always require thicker insulation?
Diameter alone is insufficient. Use operating conditions, ambient temperature and humidity and the condensation-control design.
Why must joints be bonded?
Joint gaps can interrupt layer continuity. Follow the product system adhesive and closure method.
Can tubing be stretched over a pipe?
Do not force the wrong size. Match dimensions and installation details to avoid unplanned changes in installed thickness.
When should sheet be chosen instead of tubing?
For broad surfaces or shapes unsuited to tubing, with the cuts and joints properly designed.
