Product Details
Insul-Tube® is a high-performance insulation solution designed to retard heat gain and prevent condensation or frost formation on refrigerant lines, cold water plumbing, and chilled water systems, as well as to minimize heat flow for hot water plumbing, liquid heating, dual temperature piping, and various solar systems. Specifically engineered for the HVAC and refrigeration industry, Insul-Tube® features a non-porous, non-fibrous construction that resists mold growth due to the incorporation of an EPA registered antimicrobial agent, enhancing protection against mold, fungal, and bacterial growth. The insulation is manufactured from a UV resistant elastomeric blend which does not require an additional protective coating for moderate UV exposure, although a 374 protective coating or approved jacketing is recommended for severe UV exposure applications, such as rooftop installations. Compliance specifications include ASTM C 534 Type 1 (tubing) Grade 1, ASTM D 1056-00-2C1, New York City MEA 186-86-M Vol. IV, USDA requirements, UL 94-5V flammability classification (recognition no. E300774), ASTM E 84 2" 25/50 tested according to UL 723 and NFPA 255, compliance with CAN/ULC S102 03, FMRC approval guide chapter 14 for pipe insulation, NFPA No. 101 class A rating, and adherence to NFPA 90A sect. 2.3.3 for supplementary materials in air distribution systems. It also meets ASTM C 411 requirements for high temperature thermal insulation and UL 181 sections 11.0 and 16.0 concerning mold growth and air erosion. The product is sold in a package quantity of 21, with individual pricing, and is covered under warranty terms as specified by the manufacturer.
