An aluminum foil heat reflective sleeve is typically made of aluminum foil bonded to a fiberglass or silica fabric substrate. This combination provides a highly effective solution for heat insulation and protection. The aluminum foil reflects radiant heat, while the fabric substrate offers durability, flexibility, and additional thermal resistance.
Components:
-
Aluminum foil: The outer layer, which reflects heat away from the protected surface.
-
Fiberglass or silica fabric: The core material, known for its high temperature resistance and durability, allowing the sleeve to withstand extreme temperatures without degrading.
Uses:
-
Automotive: Protects hoses, cables, and wiring from excessive heat, especially in engine compartments.
-
Industrial: Insulates pipes, wires, and ducts from high temperatures or radiant heat in factories and refineries.
-
Aerospace: Used to protect wiring and sensitive components from heat in aircraft.
-
Marine: Shields hoses and electrical cables from heat in marine environments.
-
Electronics: Prevents heat damage to wiring and components in devices that generate high temperatures.
This sleeve is ideal for protecting cables, hoses, and wires from both direct contact with heat sources and radiant heat, ensuring the longevity and safety of components exposed to extreme environments.
