THERMAFLEX FRZ Pipe Insulation 28mm Inner Diameter 13mm Wall Thickness

THERMAFLEX FRZ pipe insulation is a professional-grade polyethylene foam sleeve engineered to provide superior thermal protection for plumbing and heating systems. With an inner diameter of 28 mm and a wall thickness of 13 mm, this insulation effectively reduces heat loss in hot water pipes and prevents condensation buildup on cold water lines. Its robust structure ensures long-term performance in both residential and commercial environments, maintaining consistent thermal efficiency across a wide temperature range.

Advantages

The primary benefit of this insulation is its high-performance thermal conductivity coefficient of 0.035 W/(m·K), which ensures excellent energy conservation. The flexible polyethylene foam material is lightweight and easy to handle, allowing for quick and efficient installation on various pipe configurations. Its durable density of 40 kg/m³ provides structural integrity, while the wide operating temperature range from -80°C to +95°C makes it a versatile solution for diverse climate conditions and system requirements.

Suitable for

• Thermal insulation of domestic hot and cold water pipes
• Heating system piping to prevent energy loss
• Protection of pipes in residential buildings
• Commercial plumbing installations

When it may not be suitable

This product is not designed for outdoor use where it would be directly exposed to intense UV radiation or harsh weather conditions without additional protective cladding. It is also not suitable for high-temperature steam pipes that exceed the maximum operating temperature of 95°C.

Key specifications

• Material: Polyethylene foam
• Inner diameter: 28 mm
• Wall thickness: 13 mm
• Length: 2 m
• Thermal conductivity: 0.035 W/(m·K)
• Density: 40 kg/m³
• Operating temperature range: -80°C to +95°C

How to use

To install the insulation, simply slide the pre-formed foam sleeve over the pipe. For longer runs, the segments can be easily cut to the desired length using a sharp utility knife. Ensure that all joints are tightly butted together to maintain a continuous thermal barrier. If necessary, the seams can be secured with appropriate adhesive tape to prevent air gaps and ensure maximum thermal efficiency.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify the outer diameter of your pipes matches the 28 mm inner diameter of the insulation.
• Ensure the 13 mm wall thickness meets the specific insulation requirements for your local building codes.
• Calculate the total length of the pipe run to determine the number of 2-meter segments required.

Usage recommendations

For optimal results, ensure the pipe surface is clean and dry before installation. Avoid stretching the material excessively during application to maintain the integrity of the foam structure.
