| Description |
|
|
| Mold resistant AP/Armaflex Sheet & Roll Insulation is a flexible elastomeric thermal insulation, black in color. It is furnished with a smooth skin on one side which forms the outer exposed insulation surface. The expanded closed-cell structure of Armaflex makes it an efficient insulation. It is manufactured without the use of CFC's, HCFC's, or HFC's. It is also formaldehyde-free, dust free, low VOCs, fiber free and resists mold and mildew. All AP Armaflex products are made with Microban® antimicrobial product protection for added defense against mold on the insulation. |

| Uses |
|
|
AP/Armaflex is used to retard heat gain and control condensation drip from chilled water and refrigeration systems. It also efficiently reduces heat flow on hot systems.
| Flexible AP/Armaflex Sheet and Roll Insulation is used for all applications that cannot be accomplished by AP/Armaflex Pipe Insulation. It is particularly adaptable for insulating: |
For use on cold pipes, AP/Armaflex Pipe Insulation thicknesses have been calculated to control condensation on the insulation outer surface, as shown in the table of thickness recommendations. |

| |
| » | Tanks |
| |
| » | Vessels |
| |
| » | Curved and irregular surfaces |
| |
| » | All types of fitting covers |

The recommended temperature usage range for AP/Armaflex Sheet is -297°F to +220°F (-183°C to +105°C) according to method of application. With full adhesive coverage attachment, the surface to which it is applied may operate to a limit of 180°F (82°C). When used for pipe insulation with adhesive adhering seams and joints only, AP/Armaflex Sheet can be applied to lines that will operate to a limit of 220°F (105°C).
For use on cold systems, AP/Armaflex thicknesses have been calculated to control condensation on the insulation outer surface, as shown in the table of thickness recommendations.
AP/Armaflex Sheet and Roll Insulation is acceptable in thicknesses through 2" for use in air plenums. Conforms to NFPA 90A and NFPA 90B requirements. AP/Armaflex Sheet and Roll Insulation meets the energy code requirements of International Energy Conservation Code (EICC) and ASHRAE for R-Value 4.2 at 1" wall thickness and R-Value 8 at 2" wall thickness. |
|
| Resistance to Moisture Vapor Flow |
|
|
The closed-cell structure of AP/Armaflex prevents moisture from wicking and makes it an efficient insulation. For many applications, Armaflex needs no supplementary protection.
Additional vapor-retarder protection may be necessary for Armaflex when installed on very-low-temperature surfaces or piping or where exposed to continually high humidity conditions. |
