AVSil® WT-180 is a thick (0.25 inch) and very dense silica woven tape that is typically used in difficult thermal environments to protect equipment against fire, extreme heat, welding splatter and molten metal. The woven edge construction of the tape prevents fraying during installation and use compared to woven slit tapes. AVSil® Silica Woven Tapes are intended for high temperature applications with continuous service up to 1800°F (982°C). AVSil® Silica Woven Tapes are extensively used in the following Industries: Power Generation, Shipbuilding, Construction, Welding, and Metal Processing.

Features

• Resists high temperature and penetration of molten metal weld “slag”
• Fireproof
• Woven edge
• Excellent insulating properties
• Can be used in fabrication

Benefits

• Protects cables, pipes, cords and other equipment in the toughest welding applications
• Protects against hot work fires
• Does not unravel like slit tape
• Lower energy costs
• Reinforces edges of blankets & curtains
