  • Temperature Range

        AEROFLEX Tubes
    and Sheet insulate and prevent condensation when used in operating temperature down to -57 °C (-70 °F) and insulate against heat loss up to 125 °C (257 °F). Within these recommended operating temperatures, it will not affect the thermal efficiency and water vapor permeability of Aeroflex.

  • Moisture Resistance

        The Closed Cell Structure protects against moisture, and eliminates the need for a vapor barrier in most applications. However, under severe condition of high humidity (90% RH up), high temperature (32 °C up) and low ventilation such as underground piping, "AEROCOAT" (Acrylic Emulsion Paint) is recommended for use as additional vapor barrier coating.

  • Thermal Efficiency

        AEROFLEX
    Insulation, made from high quality synthetic elastomers, has low density and closed cell structure. The products, therefore, have a stable low K Factor of 0.25-0.27 (at 50-90 °F mean temperature) which can save energy consumption on any heating and cooling lines.

  • Flame and Smoke Proof

        
    AEROFLEX Tube and Sheet Insulation have been specially compounded to meet the ASTM Standard No. D 635, UL - 94V, JIS Standard No. K 6911 and other standards. The products have low smoke density while burning, and unlike other thermoplastic materials, Aeroflex will not cause flame transfer.

  • Anti Vibrations and Renosance

        
    The high elasticity of Aeroflex insulation minimizes the vibrations and renosance of chilled water and hot water pipelines during operation.

  • Neat Appearance

        
    The flexibility and smooth surface of Aeroflex offer neat-finished appearance even at joints, tees, elbows and crosses. No decorative or protective coating is required for both indoor and outdoor installations.

  • Flexibility and Space Saving

        
    The flexibility of Aeroflex enables quick and easy installation on bent or irregular piping. Due to its low and stable thermal conductivity, Aeroflex requires a thinner wall other than rigid insulations. Therefore, lesser space is needed for installation of Aeroflex.

  • Other Advantages

        AEROFLEX
    can be safely handled without causing skin irritations and health hazard. It has superior resistance to fungus growth, vermin or rodent attack, and other chemicals such as acids and alkalis. These make Aeroflex ideal for protecting pipings from corrosion caused by atmospheric agents and industrial ambiance.
Self-extinguishing property low smoke density and non-melting characteristic while burning make Aeroflex are widely used in air conditioning Systems. For flexibility and outstanding durability , Aeroflex is the most suitable insulation for split type airconditioners.

Flexibility and easy insulation, Aeroflex is suitable for chilled water cooling system. Many advantages as described above , make Aeroflex suitable for insulating chilled water piping.
