Description
Constructed from a high temperature base fiberglass tape which is then coated with highly reflective polished aluminum foil. The aluminum foil coating melts at 1000°F / 537°C, however it does take some time for the aluminum foil to absorb enough heat to melt – thereby it can withstand short exposure to the higher temperatures. The basic fiberglass tape is 1000°F / 537°C, while adhesive will burn-off or vaporize at temperatures above 300°F/148°C

Property:
One side coated with Aluminum foil, protection from intense radiant heat.
Reflects more than 95% of the radiant heat that contacts its surface
Excellent radiant heat protection from sources such as super-hot metal slabs, proximity to liquid metal, infrared heaters, open flame / plasma or engine exhaust manifolds is a concern.  
Used at 1000°F / 537°C continuous, If exposed to high temperature 600°F (315°C) to 1000°F (537°C) for an extended period of time the fabric may become stiff and brittle.
 
Applications:
Thermal insulation and heat protection pipes, flexible tubes, electrical cables, sealing joints of ovens and boiler doors, stoves, fireplaces and expansion joints.
