About Selecting Thermal Insulation

Multipurpose Blended Neoprene Foam Tubes

Neoprene is blended with EPDM and polyethylene for foam tubes that offer good resistance to water, sunlight, and oxidation.

Ultra-Weather-Resistant EPDM Foam Tubes

These EPDM foam tubes have the best resistance to water, sunlight, and oxidation of all the foam tubes we offer.

High-Temperature Foam Tubes

Pipe Insulation

Tear-Resistant Silicone Foam Pipe Insulation

Even at high temperatures, these tubes remain flexible to stretch over components without tearing. They restrict absorption of water, air, and gas and are typically used on hot and cold water lines and electrical components.

Flexible Rubber Foam Pipe Insulation

Soft and easy to install, this insulation restricts absorption of water, air, and gas. It is often used on cold and hot water lines and refrigeration lines.

Economical Flexible Polyethylene Foam Pipe Insulation

Less flexible than rubber foam, this insulation restricts absorption of water, air, and gas. It is typically used in plumbing applications

Lightweight Melamine Foam Pipe Insulation

Melamine has a lightweight construction that allows quick and easy installation. Use on cold and hot water piping and with refrigeration systems.

Clean Room Melamine Foam Pipe Insulation

These rigid, lightweight melamine foam tubes are wrapped in an ISO Class 5 and Fed. Spec. Class 100 clean room jacket that is suitable for sanitary and washdown applications. They’re typically used on cold and hot water piping and with refrigeration systems.

Ultra-Insulating Low-Temperature
Polyisocyanurate Foam Pipe Insulation

This very rigid insulation offers the lowest heat-flow rate of our pipe insulation and restricts absorption of water, air, and gas. It is typically used in process piping and chiller plants and performs best in applications below 50° F.

Pipe Condensation-Reducing Rubber Strips

Wrap pipes, tubing, and fittings to prevent condensation from forming. These strips are for use on copper, iron, and steel.
