Silica Sleeve

Silica Sleeve 

Filament Yarn Silica Braided Sleeving is silica tubing intended for use in high temperature applications as protection against weld splatter, fire, extreme heat and molten metal. Silica Braided Sleeving can withstand molten metal temperatures and equipment at continuous temperatures up to 1,100 degree C.

Silica Sleeving has a flexible weave that assures a"tight fit"over pipe, cable, hose, cord and tubing. Silica Sleeving is used as thermal protection or insulation over: electrical cables, power cords, water hoses, tubing and pipe. Silica sleeving is used extensively by the Power Generation, Refinery, Construction, Shipbuilding, Welding and Metal Processing Industries.

Continuous working temp.:1100 degree C
Short time working temp.:1400 degree C
Instant working temp.:1650 degree C

Features 
Resists Penetration of Weld "Slag" 
Fireproof.Compressible 
Excellent Insulating Properties 

Benefits 
Protects Equipment in Welding Applications 
Reduces Risk of "Hot Work"Fires 
Great Gasket Seal in High Temperature Applications 
Lower Utility Costs

Notes:
1. All Silica ropes have silicon dioxide content of 96%. 
2. Silica ropes are made of amorphous silica, and contain no asbestos or ceramic fibers
