Wired blankets are flexible Mineral Stonewool mats with a galvanized or stainless steel mesh that are used to hold shape during and after installation. These products are particularly suitable for the insulation of high temperature ducts, process pipe work, tanks, vessels, boiler and larger process equipment from energy loss.
The Mineral Stonewool blanket is manufactured by spinning a molten mixture of natural rock and recycled products into fine wool like fibres which are bonded together using a thermosetting resin. The mesh is then stitched to the base blanket to form the final product.
Features and Benefits
Applications
These products are good to use in process temperature control, energy conservation, condensation prevention, acoustic absorption treatment and personnel protection for plant and equipment. The Mesh facing provides additional strength and flexibility allowing the product to form and hold form around process equipment, ductwork and large diameter piping.
