Rubber foam insulation tube is a uniquely formed closed cell flexible elastomeric insulation, used to insulate heating, ventilating, air-conditioning, refrigerating (HVAC/R). The insulation tube is also CFC/HCFC free, non-porous, fiber free, dust free and resistant to mold growth. The recommended temperature range for insulation is -50℃ to +110℃.

Frequently Asked Questions
What are the primary applications of this rubber foam insulation tube?
The rubber foam insulation tube is specifically designed to insulate heating, ventilating, air-conditioning, and refrigerating (HVAC/R) systems.
What is the recommended operating temperature range?
The recommended temperature range for this elastomeric insulation is from -50℃ to +110℃.
Is the insulation material environmentally friendly and safe?
Yes. The insulation tube is CFC/HCFC free, non-porous, fiber free, dust free, and highly resistant to mold growth.
What is the fire rating and flame spread performance?
According to the technical data, it achieved Class 0 and Class 1 fire ratings under the BS 476 Part 6 & Part 7 test standards. It also registers a 25/50 rating in the ASTM E 84 Flame Spread and Smoke Developed Index test.
How does the insulation stand up to external weather elements and fungi?
The material exhibits excellent performance with "Good" ratings for fungi resistance (ASTM 21), ozone resistance (GB/T 7762-1987), and resistance to U.V. and weather conditions (ASTM G23).
What is the water absorption rate and moisture permeability of the material?
It has a low water absorption rate of 20% by volume (tested via ASTM C 209) and a water vapor permeability of ≤0.91×10 ﹣¹³ Kg/(m.s.pa), ensuring robust moisture barrier performance.
