Description
Silica Twisted Ropes are used primarily as packing for high temperature sealing applications. Silica Ropes withstand extreme temperatures up to 1,100°C and are used as tadpole tape cores, furnace door gaskets, high temperature caulking, and coke oven door seals. Silica ropes are used extensively by the Power Generation, Furnace, Oven, Refinery, Construction, Shipbuilding, Welding and Metal Processing Industries
