AVSil® Silica S-H Sleeving is flexible silica tubing intended for use in high temperature applications to protect against weld splatter, fire, extreme heat and molten metal. AVSil® Silica S-H Sleeving can withstand thermal temperatures up to 1800°F (982°C) for extended periods of time. AVSil® Silica S-H Sleeving has a flexible weave that assures a “tight fit” over pipe, cable, hose, cord and tubing.
AVSil® Silica S-H Sleeving is used as thermal protection or insulation over: electrical cables, power cords, water hoses, tubing and pipe. AVSil Silica sleeving is used extensively by the Power Generation, Refinery, Construction, Shipbuilding, Welding and Metal Processing industries.
AVSil® Silica Sleeving is used for high temperature applications requiring outstanding thermal protection. It is made with a braided flexible tube of amorphous silica fiber with a silicon dioxide content over 96%. AVSil® Silica Sleeving is specifically designed for operating conditions up to 1800°F (982°C).
