About this tape: woven ceramic fibre tape made from alumina (Al₂O₃) and silica (SiO₂) fibre, for 1000 °C continuous use and 1260 °C short-term. It is used for wrapping pipes, sealing furnace doors and insulating exhaust systems, and is flexible enough to wrap odd shapes. The fibre is melted at high temperature, drawn and woven into tape, and usually reinforced with glass fibre or stainless steel wire for tensile strength.
Specifications
| Item | Details |
|---|---|
| Material | Aluminium silicate ceramic fibre (Al₂O₃ + SiO₂), reinforced with glass fibre or stainless steel wire |
| Temperature | 1260 °C short-term / 1000 °C continuous |
| Thickness | 2, 3 or 5 mm |
| Width | 2, 3, 5 or 10 cm |
| Roll length | 30 m per roll (5 cm × 5 mm: 20 m per roll) |
| Flame | Does not burn or drip in an open flame |
| Chemical resistance | Most acids and alkalis (not hydrofluoric acid, hot phosphoric acid or strong alkalis) |
| Electrical insulation | Good insulation at high temperature |
| Heat transfer | Low thermal conductivity |
Where it is used
- Heat insulation wrapping of industrial furnaces, boilers and heat treatment equipment
- Sealing threaded joints of hot pipes and equipment gaps
- Insulation of power equipment and high-temperature electrical systems
- High-temperature wrapping on metalworking and casting equipment
- Insulation work up to 1000 °C continuous
Choosing width and thickness
| Width | Thickness | Typical use |
|---|---|---|
| 2 cm, 3 cm | 3 mm | Small pipes, cable protection, small equipment |
| 5 cm | 2, 3 or 5 mm | Medium pipes, exhaust pipes, furnace door seals (5 mm for thicker insulation) |
| 10 cm | 3 mm | Large-diameter pipes, kiln joint seals |
Installation: overlap the tape by 50% when wrapping so there are no gaps, and secure the outer layer with wire or stainless steel clips. For continuous operation above 1000 °C, or frequent thermal shock, choose the stainless steel wire reinforced version.
Common questions
What temperature can ceramic fibre tape take? 1000 °C for continuous use and 1260 °C for short periods.
Which ceramic fibre tape width should I choose? Narrow (2–3 cm) for small pipes and cable bundles, wide (5–10 cm) for large pipes and furnace bodies.
