Pyrotek ISOMAG® 175 Structural Insulation Board
Categories: Ceramic; Oxide; Magnesium Oxide; Silicon Oxide

Material Notes: Isomag® 70 is a high strength insulating board suitable as an electrical insulator or a thermal barrier material in a variety of industrial applications. Its magnesia silicate based formulation provides a product with an outstanding combination of high compressive strength and low thermal conductivity. Incombustible, Isomag® 175 is totally free of asbestos and may be cut or machined with readily available tools.

Applications

  • Platen press insulation
  • Arc chutes
  • Resistor grids
  • Induction furnaces
  • Pot pads
  • Buss support insulation
  • Foundry bottom boards
  • Blow boards

Advantages

  • Low heat loss at higher temperatures
  • Low shrinkage at temperature use limit
  • High temperature rating
  • Asbestos and ceramic fiber free
