Perfect polyethylene insulation with an extra layer of polyethylene in blue colour used for insulation wherever the resistance to mechanical damage and resistance to the dew effects is required. It is used for insulating pipes for hot and cold water in heating and sanitation technology. It is characterized by simple and easy installation, as well as a quick return on investment and care for the environment (it is 100% recyclable). Specifications: - Colour: blue (best for cold water); - Material: foamed polyethylene laminated with LDPE foil; - Diemeter: 15mm, 18mm, 22mm, 28mm or 35mm; - Heat transfer coefficient: 0,038 W/(m*K) at 40C; - Resistant to commonly used building materials such as cement, plaster, lime, concrete etc.; - Max. temperature: 95C; - Foam thickness: 6mm; - Comes in 10m roll. Why use pipe insulation: - Energy Conservation: Pipe insulation is also very important for keeping heat in the pipes and ensuring that it is conveyed to its destination without excessive heat loss. Pipes may run through cold spaces such as garages and roof voids where you dont want heat loss into these spaces as this will make the heating system less efficient. - Frost Protection: Winter usage of pipe insulation is to protect pipes against frost damage. All types of pipe can be affected by frost damage, in particular metal pipes such an copper, lead and steel which will readily split upon freezing due to the expansion of freezing water when ice occurs.
