Thermaflex FRZ Pipe Insulation 114/20

The Thermaflex FRZ pipe insulation 114/20 is a high-quality thermal protection solution designed for heating and plumbing systems. Manufactured from flexible polyethylene foam, this insulation effectively minimizes heat loss and prevents condensation on pipe surfaces. With an inner diameter of 114 mm and a wall thickness of 20 mm, it provides a robust barrier that enhances the energy efficiency of piping networks in both residential and commercial environments.

Advantages

This insulation material is characterized by its excellent thermal conductivity properties, which ensure optimal temperature retention within the pipes. The flexible structure of the polyethylene foam allows for quick and straightforward installation, even in confined spaces or around bends. Its durable composition ensures long-term performance, maintaining its protective properties over time while resisting mechanical wear. By reducing energy waste, it contributes to lower operational costs for heating and cooling systems.

Suitable for

• Thermal insulation of heating system pipes
• Protection of plumbing and water supply lines
• HVAC system installations in residential buildings
• Energy efficiency upgrades in commercial properties

When it may not be suitable

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

Key specifications

• Material: Polyethylene foam
• Inner diameter: 114 mm
• Wall thickness: 20 mm
• Length: 2 m
• Thermal conductivity: 0.038 W/(m·K)
• Density: 40 kg/m³
• Operating temperature range: -80°C to +95°C

How to use

To install the Thermaflex FRZ insulation, measure the length of the pipe section and cut the foam tube to the required size using a sharp knife. The insulation can be slit longitudinally if it is not already pre-cut, allowing it to be wrapped around the pipe. Ensure that all joints are tightly fitted and secured with appropriate adhesive or tape to maintain a continuous thermal barrier. The flexibility of the material allows it to be easily maneuvered around pipe fittings and valves.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify the outer diameter of your pipes matches the 114 mm inner diameter of the insulation.
• Ensure the operating temperature of your system remains within the -80°C to +95°C range.
• Consider the total length of the pipe run to calculate the required number of 2-meter sections.
• Check if additional sealing tape or adhesive is required for your specific installation method.

Usage recommendations

For the best results, ensure that the pipe surface is clean and dry before applying the insulation. When installing on long pipe runs, stagger the joints to improve the overall integrity of the thermal insulation layer.
