Rubber Foam Insulation / Atiron
−50°C to +105°C
Main applications
- very low water absorption
- damping vibration and noise
- controlling condensation
- for refrigerant
- chilled and hot water piping alike
Key Features
A wide range for hot and cold
−50°C to +105°C — insulating chilled water, refrigerant, hot water and steam piping alike
Closed cells, vapour and water tight
Cross-linked synthetic rubber closed-cell structure — very low water absorption, maintaining condensation control long term
Excellent acoustic and vibration damping
The vibration-absorbing character of rubber foam damps pipe vibration noise and blocks machinery noise
Flexible and easy to install
The flexibility of rubber fits tightly to complex pipe geometry and cuts and bonds easily
Chemical and ozone resistance
The chemical resistance of synthetic rubber — resistant to ozone, UV and chemicals, usable indoors and out

Applications
HVAC & refrigeration
- •Condensation-control insulation on refrigerant and chilled water lines
- •Insulation sheet for HVAC ducts
Building services
- •Insulation of hot and cold water supply piping
- •Insulation of heating and cooling pipework
Industrial piping
- •Insulation and vibration damping on chemical piping
- •Noise-reducing insulation on machinery piping
Specialty plant
- •Marine pipe insulation and vibration damping
- •Insulation of food refrigeration piping
Notes
- ※Far better than glasswool at vapour control and condensation prevention — strongly recommended for chilled water piping.
- ※Use the dedicated joint adhesive alongside self-adhesive closures to maximise the vapour barrier.
