Insulated Pipe Jacket for Industrial Piping
The Unitherm IW4218 is a fiberglass insulated pipe jacket designed for straight pipe sections in industrial environments.

It fits pipes with a circumference between 31 and 38 inches.
Maximum Ambient Temperature Rating 900 Degrees F
The single specification that decides suitability is the maximum ambient temperature rating of 900 degrees F. This defines the thermal limit for the insulation assembly in service. Buyers needing protection above this temperature must select a different product. The R value is 0.48 at this thickness.
Quick Release Fastening System for Installation
The jacket fastens with a quick release fabric flap and wiretwists. This system allows the jacket to be opened and closed without tools for inspection or maintenance. The gray color matches standard industrial coding. The product meets OSHA standards for workplace safety.
