Sheets are availabe in standard precut sizes or in rls, Uses: Insuitlex expanded closed cell structure provides the ideal and most efficient ‘vapour barrier for the prevention of condensation or frost formation on cooling systems, chilled water and reftigerant lines. Insuiflex also retards heat loss for hot ‘water plumbing and heating, dual temperature piping and solar systems. It protects pipes by acting as a vibration damper and giving protection against corrosion by atmospheric and industrial environment. Insuifiex inherent flexibility makes it ideally suited for the insulation of large surface area such as tanks, irregular shaped vessels, air-ducts and large diameter pipes.

The sip-on method is used to insulate new pipos before they are installed or connected whereas the snap-on method is used when pipes have been installed and connected. Insulflx tubing can be cut to length or sit lengthwise with a sharp knife. The inner surface of tubing i lightly powdered to permit the tubing to be slipped easily over the pipe, Seal pipe ends with plugs while instaling the tubing insulation to prevent powder from antering the refrigeration system. itis important net te compress the tubing materia as the insulation value may be degraded when compressed and condensation may occur onthe compressed area.

Its the same high quaity, elastomeric closed cell thermal insulation material as Insullex tubing method Measure the size of sheets required for insulation. Cut the material to the measured size with a sharp knite and straight edge. Ensure that cuts are as accurate as possible and with smooth edges to ensure full contact with mating sheets when bonded together. Do not stretch sheets and always apply with smooth skin surface facing out.
