About Reflective Heat Shield Fiberglass Sleeve Edge Sewn
Constructed from a high temperature base filamenttexturized fiberglass fabric which is then coated with highly reflective polished aluminum The aluminum foil coating melts at 1220 degree F 660 degree 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 1000 degree F537 degree C while adhesive will burnoff or vaporize at temperatures above 300 degree F148 degree C
The sleeve is fabricated from a roll fabric and is sewn with a double lockstitch seam utilizing hightemperature Kevlar thread The resulting sleeve has a teardrop or tadpole profile when viewed onendthe width of the sewn tail is typically 6mm
Exceptional Thermal ProtectionThis aluminized fiberglass sleeve delivers outstanding heat reflectivity and insulation, with surface thermal tolerance up to 550C for short durations. The aluminum foil ensures minimal thermal conductivity (<0.035 W/mK), effectively safeguarding cables and hoses in close proximity to heat sources, making it indispensable in high-temperature environments.
Easy and Versatile InstallationDesigned as a slip-on style sleeve, installation is effortless-just slide it over the cable, wire, or hose requiring protection. With available sizes ranging in internal diameters from 6mm to 100mm and custom cut length options, the sleeve adapts seamlessly to diverse project needs. OEM and custom packaging services further support flexible applications.
Reliable Performance and DurabilityEdge-sewn with heat-resistant thread, the fiberglass core resists abrasion, shrinking, and warping (<3% shrinkage at 250C for 24 hours). The aluminum surface offers excellent UV and corrosion resistance, while the self-extinguishing property (FMVSS 302 compliant) enhances fire safety. Water absorption remains low, maintaining integrity in tough industrial or outdoor settings.
