Industrial Pipe Insulation
Our Industrial Pipe Insulation product, made of glassfiber needled mat by heat pressing and adding a high-temperature-resistant binder, is formed into Pipe/Plate/Elbow shapes. It is widely used in Petrochemical Plants, Power Plants, Steam Pipe Industry, Navy, Shipbuilding, and in high-temperature workplaces. Our Industrial Pipe Insulation is available in a wide range of sizes. For formed pipe, we offer sizes from 0.5 inch to 44 inch with pipe wall thicknesses from 20mm to 125mm. The pipe length is 1 meter, making it easy to handle on the worksite. For plate shape, thickness is available from 20 mm to 150 mm, and width is 1 meter. It can also be pressed into an ideal shape & size, which is unique to the industry, where it shows irregular shapes such as exchangers, flanges, tanks, vessels, and so on.
Features

- Good toughness behaviour: Easy Installation Reduces Contractor Time in Field.
- Installs Easily: Up to 60% Less labor; Less Waste; Simple Installation over Heat Tracing.
- Density: High density with 200kg/m³ can compared to 240kg/m³ calcium silicate.
Application
- Suitable for piping, vessels, tanks, ducts and equipment operating at temperatures up to 1400 ° F (760 ° C).
- Can also provide oil storage tank or ship, accurate preformed circular plate.
How-to / Selection Guidance
Choosing industrial steam pipe insulation comes down to matching the material's form and specification to the equipment and operating temperature. Our pipe insulation is made of glass fiber needled mat, heat-pressed with a high-temperature-resistant binder. Work through these checks:
- Pick the shape: pre-formed Pipe sections, Plates, or Elbows, based on the system layout.
- Match the pipe dimensions: formed pipes cover 0.5" to 44" sizes with wall thicknesses from 20 mm to 125 mm, in a standard 1-meter length.
- Cover irregular equipment with plates: 20 mm to 150 mm thick and 1 meter wide, pressable into custom shapes for exchangers, flanges, tanks, and vessels.
- Confirm the temperature rating: suitable for service up to 1400°F (760°C), with 6.5% less linear shrinkage at 1200°F (650°C).
- Plan the installation: sections install directly over heat tracing, simplifying field work.
Compared with traditional calcium silicate, our glass fiber pipe insulation is the lighter option: 200 kg/m³ versus 240 kg/m³, reducing the load on pipe racks. Installation can take up to 60% less labor, shortening schedules for petrochemical plants, power plants, and shipbuilding projects. The material also contains no hazardous organic chemical binders, and its low chloride content keeps the risk of stress corrosion cracking on stainless steel piping minimal.
