Heat-resistant conduits
Heat-resistant conduits - maximum fire protection for wires and cables
Heat-resistant conduits are used when it comes to fire protection during the installation of cables and wires. Here, reliable heat protection has top priority. The protection can be newly installed or fitted later. This special electrical conduit must meet a wide range of requirements in terms of material, processing, product properties and the typical features for fire protection.
Absolute fire protection is offered by the FLEXAhightemp products in the signal colour red. The heat-resistant conduit has a protective silicone sheathing. The matching fire protection swathing tape consisting of a calcium-silicate braiding and silicone sheathing has a firm selvage and can also be fitted later as fire protection. The whole thing is fixed in place using suitable adhesive tape, which has a fireblocker coating made of aramide or calcium-silicate with silicone coating.
Heat-resistant conduits - meet fire protection requirements
With their properties, the fire protection products meet the necessary fire protection specifications and ensure maximum safety. A FLEXAhightemp is self-extinguishing in fire behaviour and at the same time liquid-tight and largely resistant to seawater. The heat-resistant conduit can withstand temperatures from -50°C to 350°C, and for short periods even temperatures of up to 700°C are possible. Mechanically, they are abrasion-resistant as well as very flexible and largely resistant to acid and oil. With the different nominal sizes in various inner and outer diameters, the required quantity can easily be ordered to fit exactly.
The fire protection complies with protection class IP68 and impresses with its outstanding features. The fire protection conduit creates ideal conditions as a cover for cables and lines, hydraulic hoses and cooling water hoses. The products are watertight and waterproof, non-flammable and have good radiation resistance. The flame-retardant conduit is used at high temperatures and serves as protection against open flame, sparking and metal splashes. In accident protection, for example, a FLEXAhightemp swathing tapeprevents burns on fittings, exhaust or hot metal conduits.
Fire protection for many applications in various industries
Thanks to its outstanding features, fire protection using FLEXAhightemp adhesive tape can be used for many applications and in a wide range of industries. The special conduit offers maximum fire protection, for example, in shipbuilding, mining, quarrying/open-cast mining, rail vehicles, in metallurgical plants, steelworks and rolling mills, in the chemical industry, in oil refineries, glass factories, the steel industry or in traffic engineering.
The high-quality heat-resistant conduits with accessories are an indispensable trio when it comes to maximum fire protection of wires and cables.
FAQ - frequently asked questions about heat-resistant conduits
What are the properties of heat-resistant conduits?
High-temperature or heat-resistant conduits are particularly suitable at high temperatures. They are used in the high temperature range of up to 300°C, briefly even up to 700°C.
What diameters of high temperature conduits are available?
Heat-resistant conduits are available in the diameters 17mm - 56mm.
What is the area of application for heat-resistant conduits?
They are used both in manufacturing and foundries, as well as in other facilities where high temperatures prevail.
What kind of materials are heat-resistant conduits available in?
High temperature or heat-resistant conduits are made of silicone.
What is the structure of high temperature tubing like?
On the inside, the high temperature tubing is made of calcium-silicate braiding, whereas the outer sheathing is made of silicone.
Advantages of heat-resistant conduits?
High temp tubing mainly offers protection in high- temperature ranges. It is watertight as well as resistant to oil and acid.
