Product Details
Insul-Tube® is designed to retard heat gain and prevent condensation or frost formation on refrigerant lines, cold water plumbing, and chilled water systems, while also retarding heat flow for hot water plumbing, liquid heating, dual temperature piping, and various solar systems. This product is specifically tailored for the HVAC and refrigeration industry, featuring a non-porous, non-fibrous structure that resists mold growth, aided by an EPA registered antimicrobial agent for enhanced protection against mold, fungal, and bacterial growth. Made from a UV resistant elastomeric blend, Insul-Tube® requires no additional protective coating for moderate UV exposure; however, in cases of severe UV exposure, such as rooftop applications, a protective coating or approved jacketing or cladding is recommended. The product complies with specifications including 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, and meets requirements of CAN/ULC S102 03. Additionally, it is listed in the FMRC approval guide chapter 14 for pipe insulation, has an NFPA No. 101 class A rating, conforms to NFPA 90A section 2.3.3 for supplementary materials for air distribution systems, meets ASTM C 411 for hot surface performance of high temperature thermal insulation, and adheres to UL 181 sections 11.0 and 16.0 regarding mold growth and air erosion. Insul-Tube® is sold in package quantities of 20.
