Seams are sewn with high temperature threads, usually with Kevlar TM, PTFE coated glass fibre or stainless steel thread to suit application. We can also offer specialised threads including Quartz and continuous filament ceramic for resistance to extremes of temperature.
All insulation covers are secured with either:
a). Hooks and back plates (brass, nickel or stainless steel).
b). Velcro TM hook and loop strip.
c). D Buckles and Belts
Flaps and draw cords are also provided to secure to adjacent insulation.
Special insulation covers can be manufactured for specific applications, e.g. high moisture content, acid or other chemical contamination, or high temperatures up to 1000C.
Bespoke tailored items such as calorifier bodies and end flanges, cylindrical, spherical and rectangular shaped items are all produced by our experienced manufacturing team.
