Pipe Condensation-Reducing Rubber Strips
Wrap pipes, tubing, and fittings to prevent condensation from forming. These strips are for use on copper, iron, and steel.
Rubber strips are bacteria and UV resistant to protect pipe from corrosion above and below ground.
Vinyl foam strips restrict absorption of water, air, and gas.
Strips that meet UL 94 HF-1 have passed a test for flammability.

Ultra-Thin Low-Temperature Aerogel Pipe Insulation
- Temperature Range: -290° to 390° F
- Heat Flow Rate: 0.11 Btu @ 75° F
Able to withstand temperatures as low as -290° F, these super-thin, lightweight sheets are made of fiber-reinforced silica aerogel that can flex into tight spaces other insulation can't. Use in process piping and power-generating applications. Insulation can be layered, laminated, or wrapped in foil.

High-Temperature Ceramic Fiber Pipe Insulation
Shield against extreme heat with these flexible ceramic strips. They are often used to insulate hose, cables, and process piping.
Alumina oxide ceramic fiber has the lowest heat-flow rate of all the ceramic fiber materials.
Alkaline earth silicate ceramic fiber, also called AES, has a foil facing to reflect radiant heat.
Insulation with adhesive backing allows you to install without having to hold in place. Secure with band clamps or other parts of the assembly once in position. Apply while cool. Adhesive will start to wear off around 400° F, but this does not affect the insulation’s temperature rating.
