Industrial Insulation Jacket for Straight Pipe
The Unitherm IW1818 is a silicone-coated fiberglass cloth jacket designed to insulate straight pipe sections in industrial environments. It combines a fiberglass and mineral wool core with a quick-release fastening system for secure, repeatable installation. The gray cover measures 18 inches wide by 18 inches long with a 3-inch wall thickness.
Fits Pipes Between 6 and 13 Inch Circumference
This jacket accommodates straight pipe sections with a minimum circumference of 6 inches and a maximum of 13 inches. The R-value is 0.48, providing thermal resistance for high-temperature service up to 900 degrees Fahrenheit. Selecting the correct size depends entirely on matching your pipe circumference to this range.
Quick-Release Flaps Speed Up Maintenance
The fastening system uses fabric flaps and wiretwists that open and close without tools. This allows technicians to remove and reinstall the jacket rapidly for inspection or repair of the underlying pipe. The design meets OSHA standards for industrial use and ships as a single 1818 model unit.
