CLARETEX PAD & LAGGING FABRICS

Claretex fabrics are 100-percent glass textiles that are texturized for maximum coverage and ease in processing. Fabrics are asbestos free and are available in many finishes and treatments while still offering the high-temperature resistance of glass textiles. FERRATEX 25 is a fabric woven with yarns that are plied from 100-percent glass yarn and fine 304 stainless steel wire. These wire-reinforced yarns add strength and serve as a heat sink. FERRATEX 25 conforms to HH-P-0031(SH) and is used for contact temperatures to 1200° F.

APPLICATIONS

  • Removable insulation pads for thermal and acoustical applications

  • Protective lagging for pipe insulations

  • Stress-relieving blankets

  • Flange and valve covers

  • Safety clothing

  • Welding blankets

  • Heat shields and spray diffuser shields

  • Asbestos encapsulation

  • Expansion joints

  • Tadpole tapes and high-temperature gaskets

  • Any other applications where high-temperature protection is required

 

FEATURES/BENEFITS

FINISHES

  • A557 - Also called Lageeze, a multi-purpose pad covering and lagging finish, provides good hand, minimal dust, and ease of fabrication. A heat cleaning process removes starches and lubricants from fabric.

  • B567 - Same finish as A557 with the addition of a degree of water and oil repellency.

  • Diplag - A pre-applied, water-activated adhesive finish used for lagging. After fabric has dried, normal sizing or painting is required.

  • Red - Fabric is pigmented red to designate the product as asbestos-free. Conforms to current U.S. Navy color requirement. Fabrics can be dyed in other colors.

  • Aluminized - 0.001" foil is laminated to Claretex fabric with a fire-retardant thermoplastic adhesive.
