About 0.43mm Aluminium foil laminated fiberglass fabric
Aluminium foil laminated fiberglass fabric is constructed from a high temperature base filament/texturized fiberglass fabric which is then coated with highly reflective polished aluminum foil. The aluminum foil coating melts at 1220degree F / 660degree C, however it does take some time for the aluminum foil to absorb enough heat to melt,thereby it can withstand short exposure to the higher temperatures. The basic fiberglass fabric is 1000degree C/537degree C, while adhesive will burn-off or vaporize at temperatures above 300degree F/148degree C.Properties:One side coated with Aluminum foil. Protection from intense radiant heatReflects more than 95% of the radiant heat that contacts its surfaceExcellent radiant heat protection from sources such as super-hot metal slabs, proximity to liquid metal, infrared heaters, open flame / plasma or engine exhaust manifolds is a concernApplications:Serve as a welding defender, heat protection quilt, foundry splash protectionConveyor belt and expansion jointChemical corrosion resistance, packing materialUsed for aerospace, marine, chemical industrial, power plant, automotive, construction, pipling flexibility and sealing industry.PSA(pressure sensitive adhesive) AvailableThis fabric is also available with a self-adhesive backing.The adhesive is water adhesive based, and will burn-off or vaporize at temperatures above 300degree F/148degree C.If prolonged use of the self-adhesive fabric above 300degree F/148degree C is desired, then alternate securing methods such as fasteners, wire or clamps should be used.Personnel should avoid inhaling fumes from the PSA.We have a SuperTemp adhesive can work at temperature 280degree C continuously.Superior Thermal ProtectionWith a combination of robust fiberglass fabric and aluminium foil lamination, this material offers outstanding resistance to heat, molten metal splashes, and welding sparks. The reflective surface ensures minimal heat penetration, providing safety and reliability in high-temperature environments.
Versatile Industrial ApplicationsSuitable for a broad range of fields including aerospace, marine, chemical processing, power generation, and automotive industries, this laminated fabric serves multiple functions - from conveyor belts and expansion joints to advanced insulation solutions and protective equipment for hazardous tasks.
FAQ's of 0.43mm Aluminium foil laminated fiberglass fabric:
Q: How is this aluminium foil laminated fiberglass fabric manufactured?
A: The fabric is made by laminating a high-temperature base of filament or texturized fiberglass with a single side of highly reflective polished aluminium foil. The aluminium foil, available in 7, 18, or 25 micron thickness, is bonded to enhance both the thermal and mechanical resistance of the material.
Q: What are the key benefits of using this product in industrial settings?
A: It delivers excellent thermal insulation, resists molten metal splashes, offers chemical corrosion protection, and maintains flexibility even under high temperatures. These features ensure its suitability for critical safety and protective roles in tough working environments.
Q: When should I choose aluminium foil laminated fiberglass fabric over standard insulation materials?
A: This product is ideal when applications demand a combination of heat reflection, mechanical durability, chemical resistance, and flexibility, such as in welding shields, foundry environments, or high-temperature duct insulation where conventional materials may not suffice.
Q: Where can this product be applied for optimal results?
A: It is widely used in locations requiring heat protection or sealing, like aerospace assemblies, marine vessels, foundries, automotive plants, power plants, construction sites, and pipelining or expansion joints requiring both insulation and flexibility.
Q: What is the typical process for installing or using this fabric?
A: Depending on the application, the fabric can be cut to size and sewn, wrapped, or anchored to surfaces as needed. It is commonly used as a layer in quilts, attached to conveyor belts, or fixed in place for splash protection and insulation purposes.
Q: What sizes and finishes are available for this product?
A: The fabric comes with a thickness of 0.43mm, in rolls of 50 or 100 meters and widths of 1 or 1.5 meters. The aluminium foil can be 7, 18, or 25 microns thick, and only one side of the fabric is coated with the aluminium.
