Full details

The AF/Armaflex Evo Nitrile Pipe Insulation is an ideal choice for professional contractors and HVAC technicians who require superior thermal efficiency and moisture control in hot and cold water or refrigerated systems. Its standout benefit is the combination of Microban antimicrobial protection and advanced closed-cell technology that prevents condensation-related corrosion, though users should note that the specialized material requires careful handling during adhesive application to ensure airtight seams.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Is this insulation suitable for outdoor use?

While the material is durable, it is primarily designed for indoor plumbing and HVAC systems. If used outdoors, it should be protected from UV radiation and environmental elements.

Does this product prevent mould growth?

Yes, it features built-in Microban antimicrobial protection specifically designed to reduce mould and bacterial growth.

Can I use standard duct tape to seal the joints?

For optimal performance, it is recommended to use the manufacturer-approved adhesive to ensure a long-lasting, airtight seal.

Is the material safe to handle without protective gear?

The product is dust and fibre-free, making it much cleaner to handle than traditional glass wool insulation.

What is the primary benefit of the closed-cell structure?

The closed-cell structure prevents moisture ingress, which is essential for stopping pipe corrosion in chilled water applications.

Troubleshooting

Condensation forming on the insulation surface

Check that all seams and joints are fully sealed with adhesive; gaps allow moist air to reach the cold pipe surface.

Insulation not adhering to the pipe

Ensure the pipe surface is free of oil, grease, or moisture before application; clean the pipe with a degreaser if necessary.
