Insulation Ropes
Fireproof ropes are also called “Insulation packing”، includes square braided rope, round braided rope, and twisted rope. Insulation Ropes are made of refractory fibers such as fiberglass. Ceramic fiber, Asbestos fiber, Aramid, Graphite, Teflon and…, to increase the mechanical and chemical resistance of refractory ropes, they are reinforced with metal wires or impregnated with special resins. Insulation ropes used as Sealing inside and around high temperature heating equipment.

Insulation Tapes
The process of producing refractory tape is similar to refractory fabrics, except that Insulation tape width ranging from 30-100 mm.
Types of insulation tapes:
- Fiberglass tapes, width 1.5 & 3 cm
- Fiberglass silk tape or satin weave, thickness 0.2mm
- Ceramic tape, simple and wired
- PTFE or Teflon refractory tape , Aramide refractory tapes
