Arma-Chek D AFD-13MM - Durable Pipe Insulation Sheet

The Arma-Chek D AFD-13MM is a high-performance insulation sheet from Armacell, engineered to provide robust thermal and mechanical protection for pipes, ducts, vessels, and equipment. With a 13mm thickness and a pre-applied woven glass fibre covering, this product is designed to withstand challenging environments, making it an ideal choice for industrial and commercial applications across the UK.

Key Features

• Superior Durability: The woven glass fibre covering offers excellent resistance to mechanical impact, UV radiation, oil, and chemicals, ensuring long-term protection and reduced maintenance costs.
• Corrosion Protection: Significantly reduces the risk of corrosion under insulation (CUI), extending the lifespan of your equipment.
• High Thermal Efficiency: Achieves a thermal conductivity of ≤ 0.033 W/(m·K), minimising heat loss and improving energy efficiency in refrigeration and air conditioning systems.
• Water Vapour Resistance: With a water vapour diffusion resistance factor of μ ≥ 15,000, it prevents moisture ingress, maintaining insulation performance over time.
• Wide Temperature Range: Suitable for service temperatures from -50°C to +110°C, with a maximum of +185°C when fully adhered to surfaces.
• Health and Safety: Dust- and fibre-free, ensuring a safe installation process and compliance with health standards.

Applications

The Arma-Chek D AFD-13MM is versatile and well-suited for a range of applications, including:

• Insulation and protection of pipes and ducts in refrigeration and air conditioning systems.
• Thermal insulation for vessels and equipment in clean rooms and industrial installations.
• Protection against mechanical stress in environments prone to physical damage.

Installation Benefits

Designed for efficiency, the Arma-Chek D AFD-13MM combines insulation and covering in one product, streamlining the installation process.
