High temperature stability: Ceramic fiber insulation blanket withstands direct flame, continuous use at 2200 ℉, intermittent use at 2400 ℉. Above 2400 ℉ it will begin to shrink, become brittle and eventually melt at 3200 ℉.
Thermal conductivity: The R-value is approximately 2.5 per inch. For a 1000 ℉ hot face with 1" of insulation, expect the cold face of the insulation to be 220 ℉.
Installation: Mechanical fastening or high temperature adhesive such as sodium silicate, refractory cement or RTV silicone.
Quality: Made from premium 8lb density ceramic fiber that has high insulating value, strength & durability. Made in the USA.
Chemical composition: 46% alumina, 54% silica and less than 1% impurities.
Comparable to: Kaowool, Inswool, Durablanket, Cerablanket, TaoFiber, Fiberfrax, Ceramic Wool
Important Safety Information
DANGER
All ceramic fiber products have a hazard communication warning label and prop 65 warning for airborne fiber inhalation. Please consult the Safety Data Sheet for more information.
HAZARD STATEMENT
Prolonged and repeated exposure to ceramic fiber dust is suspected of causing cancer and other lung damage. May cause skin and eye irritation.
PRECAUTIONARY STATEMENT
When handling ceramic fiber we recommend protective gloves, safety glasses and long sleeve clothing. Avoid creating airborne dust, by only using hand tools. Frequently clean the work area with HEPA filtered vacuum or wet sweeping to minimize the accumulation of dust. Do not use compressed air for clean-up. Avoid breathing the dust and if necessary, wear an approved respirator mask.
