Able to withstand temperatures of up to 2000° F, these coatings absorb heat and release it later. Use them to improve the thermal efficiency of heaters, furnaces, and ovens to reduce energy costs. Also known as high-emissivity coatings, they have an emissivity rating of 0.9—the closer a material’s rating is to 1.0, the more heat it will absorb and later radiate. Apply with a brush or sprayer.

Unlike fiberglass and silica, this sleeving won't irritate skin, so it’s easier to handle. It withstands open flame and molten metal splash, making it a good choice for welding applications. The ceramic fabric also resists acids, alkalies, alcohol, solvents, oil, and gasoline. Because this sleeving is non-expandable, it does not stretch, so it’s best for applications where you know the exact diameter of the items you need to protect. It meets MIL-I-24244 for material quality.
