Blown flue pipe insulation

Blown flue pipe insulation is made up of loose, granular material that is either installed by hand or, more commonly, blown into voids using specialist equipment. This is therefore why most people within the commercial flue systems industry refer to it as blown flue pipe insulation.
It is rated as non-combustible in accordance with BS476 Part 4.
This type of flue pipe insulation is specifically designed for use as an insulation that is in-filled around equipment, within voids and in restricted areas. Its ability to be handled makes it very easy to work with at a range of extreme temperatures, from cryogenic applications all the way through to high-temperature applications.
Effective high-temperature use is dependent upon the installed density. It is recommended that handfill be installed to a density of 150kg/m3 or greater for use at temperatures of up to 800°C. The typical installed density is in the range 45 to 200kg/m3. Our Technical Department can advise on installations where temperatures range from 800°C up to 1500°C.
