About Silica88 Silica Fabric

Silica88 is woven by high SiO2 content fiberglass yarn with specially formulated acid treatment. It is a economic silica cloth suitable for continuous use at 1650 degree F (900 degree C), and able to withstand short term exposure up to 2200 degree F (1200 degree C). Additional polyurethane coating or vermiculite coating will enhance the fabrics unmatched abrasion resistance and tensile strength.

Continuous working temp.: 900 degree C

Short time working temp.:1200 degree C

Instant working temp.:1400 degree C

Application:

This product is ideal for heat preservation material, firefighting equipment like fire curtains and fireproof garments. Very good in dust collection and filtration equipment where special material is needed to withstand high temperature gas, and in filtering high-temperature liquid metal.

Versatile High-Temperature Insulation

Silica88 Silica Fabric offers exceptional resistance to heat, flame, and chemicals, making it a preferred choice for industrial insulation. Available in plain, satin, or twill weave, this material provides flexibility for both standard and custom applications such as furnace lining, welding protection, and pipe insulation.

Excellent Mechanical and Thermal Properties

With a tensile strength of 700 N/25mm and low thermal conductivity, this fabric is designed for reliability in high-stress, high-temperature environments. Its suppleness ensures it can be easily handled, wrapped, or cut, promoting easier installation and enhanced safety for users.

FAQs of Silica88 Silica Fabric:

Q: How can Silica88 Silica Fabric be used for thermal protection and insulation?

A: Silica88 Silica Fabric is woven for extreme heat resistance, making it ideal for high-temperature insulation, fire blankets, pipe and cable insulation, and furnace and boiler covers. It can be used as a heat shield in aerospace and automotive sectors, offering protection up to 1000C continuously and up to 1200C for short-term exposures.

Q: What are the benefits of using Silica88 Silica Fabric over conventional insulation materials?

A: This fabric provides superior thermal resistance above 1700C melting point, high flexibility, low moisture content, and excellent resistance to acids, alkalis, and corrosion. Its non-toxic nature and compliance with ASTM standards ensure safety and reliability in critical applications.

Q: When is it recommended to choose vermiculite- or PTFE-coated options?

A: Choose vermiculite-coated Silica88 for added abrasion, spark, and chemical resistance, which is advantageous in welding and fire protection settings. PTFE coatings improve ease of cleaning and further chemical resistance, making them suitable for environments prone to contamination or chemical exposure.

Q: Where is Silica88 Silica Fabric typically applied in industry?

A: This fabric is widely used in industries such as metallurgy, power generation, automotive, and aerospace for covering and insulating pipes, cables, furnaces, and high-heat work zones. Its reliability and high purity make it suitable for environments with stringent safety and performance standards.

Q: What is the process for cutting and handling this fabric for custom installations?

A: Silica88 Silica Fabric is easy to handle due to its excellent flexibility and supple nature. It can be cut to required sizes using standard industrial scissors or blades. Protective gear is recommended during handling to prevent irritation from fine fibers.

Q: How does the fabrics low moisture and high density contribute to its performance?

A: With moisture content below 0.02% and a density of 100 g/cm, Silica88 offers outstanding thermal insulation, minimizing heat transfer while avoiding structural degradation from humidity. This ensures long service life and consistent performance in harsh conditions.

Q: What dimensions and thicknesses are available for Silica88 Silica Fabric rolls?

A: Standard rolls measure 50 meters in length and 1 meter in width. Common thicknesses are 1.0 mm, 1.3 mm, and 2 mm, with customized sizes available upon request, catering to various industrial application needs.
