Import Aeroflex Thermal Insulation Tube — Buy in Bulk from Supplier in China

The Aeroflex thermal insulation tube is a flexible, closed-cell elastomeric material designed for insulating liquid cooling and heating lines, including cold water plumbing, chilled water pipelines, and refrigerant systems. It operates effectively across a temperature range of -57°C to 125°C (-70°F to 257°F), maintaining stable thermal efficiency and water vapor permeability without degradation. The closed-cell structure eliminates the need for a vapor barrier in most applications, though additional AEROCOAT acrylic emulsion coating is recommended for severe conditions such as high humidity (90% RH), high temperatures (32°C+), or low ventilation environments like underground piping.

Manufactured from synthetic elastomers, the tube offers a low K-factor of 0.25 - 0.27 (at 50 - 90°F mean temperature), which is typical for high-performance EPDM insulation and contributes to energy savings in heating and cooling systems. The material’s high elasticity minimizes vibration and resonance in pipelines, while its flexibility allows for easy installation on bent or irregular piping without compromising insulation integrity. Standard industry properties for this grade include a density of 60 - 80 kg/m³ and a typical tensile strength of 300 - 500 kPa, ensuring durability under mechanical stress.

Primary applications include frost control on cold water plumbing, condensation prevention on chilled water and refrigerant lines, and heat loss reduction in hot water and dual-temperature piping. The tube’s smooth surface and neat finish at joints, tees, and elbows make it suitable for both indoor and outdoor installations without requiring decorative coatings. Buyers in HVAC, refrigeration, and industrial sectors should confirm tube inner diameters (ID) and wall thicknesses to match their piping specifications, as these are critical for proper fit and insulation performance.
