How to choose your material
When selecting the most suitable product for your insulation or protection application, there are several important factors that need to be carefully considered. The selection criteria should include:-
1. The continuous operating temperature to which the insulation medium will be exposed.
2. Operating environment i.e. corrosive, indoor/outdoor, static/vibrating, molten metal.
3. Temperature reduction i.e. hot face to cold face.
4. The need to be air tight.
5. Permeability and porosity.
6. Expected life of the insulation/protection item.
