About Selecting Thermal Insulation

Ultra-Thin Aerogel Pipe Insulation

Lightweight and super thin, these fiber-reinforced silica aerogel sheets and strips flex into tight spaces other insulation can't. Use on process piping and in power-generating applications. Insulation can be layered, laminated, or wrapped in foil.

Flame-resistant insulation meets ASTM E84 0/0 for flame and smoke.

Ultra-Thin Low-Temperature Aerogel Pipe Insulation

Temperature Range: -290° to 390° F
Heat Flow Rate: 0.11 Btu @ 75° F

Able to withstand temperatures as low as -290° F, these super-thin, lightweight sheets are made of fiber-reinforced silica aerogel that can flex into tight spaces other insulation can't. Use in process piping and power-generating applications. Insulation can be layered, laminated, or wrapped in foil.
