| Insulfrax S Blanket is a flexible, strong, lightweight, needled blanket produced from Insulfrax Fiber. Mechanical needling of the spun Insulfrax fibers eliminates the need for binders in the product's manufacture and results in a product with high tensile strength. Since Insulfrax S Blanket is completely inorganic, the product exhibits no smoke generation or outgassing in service. Insulfrax S Blanket combines low thermal conductivity with excellent resistance to thermal shock. Note that high humidity and wetting with water prior to service has little effect on Insulfrax S Blanket. A series of green dots on the surface of the blanket make identification, tracking, and inspection of Insulfrax S Blanket simple on the job site or in the fabrication shop. The Insulfrax Fiber calcium, magnesium, silicate chemistry provides superior wetting resistance to molten aluminum alloys. Testing with corrosive aluminum alloys at elevated temperatures has proven that Insulfrax fibers are superior to traditional alumina/silica refractory ceramic fibers.
