Product Details
Insul-Tube® is engineered to retard heat gain and prevent condensation or frost formation on refrigerant lines, cold water plumbing, and chilled water systems, while also minimizing heat flow for hot water plumbing, liquid heating, dual temperature piping, and various solar systems. This non-porous, non-fibrous insulation is formulated for the HVAC and refrigeration industry, resisting mold growth due to an incorporated EPA registered antimicrobial agent that provides additional protection against mold, fungal, and bacterial proliferation. Constructed from a UV resistant elastomeric blend, Insul-Tube® requires no extra protective coating for moderate UV exposure, although for severe UV exposure such as rooftop applications, the use of 374 protective coating or approved jacketing or cladding is advised. The product complies with several 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, CAN/ULC S102 03, FMRC approval guide chapter 14 for pipe insulation, NFPA No. 101 class A rating, and meets requirements of NFPA 90A sect. 2.3.3 for supplementary materials for air distribution systems, as well as requirements of ASTM C 411 for hot surface performance of high-temperature thermal insulation and UL 181 sections 11.0 and 16.0 regarding mold growth and air erosion. Insul-Tube® is sold in a package quantity of 10, priced each.
