BSTFLEX Texturized basalt braided sleeve

This Texturized basalt braided sleeve is made by texturized basalt yarns trap greater amounts of air and demonstrates better insulation properties and great fullness. It is engineered for protection from temperatures up to 1,200°F.

 

Made of a tubular braiding to obtain a extremely elastic and flexible sleeve.

 

This sleeve resistant most acids, alkalis and is unaffected by most bleaches, solvents. It is highly flexible and conformable.

 

The Texturized basalt braided sleeve is a 100% inorganic, mineral, continuous filament with an excellent high temperature and shock resistance. Basalt fiber is similar to carbon fiber and fiberglass, but basalt has better mechanical properties than fiberglass and is lower in cost than carbon fiber. The Texturized basalt braided sleeve is easy to install and will provide years of protection and good looks.

 

Texturized basalt braided sleeve is a highly conformable sleeve which provides excellent thermal protection for engine and generator exhaust piping for automobiles, marine engines and generators, bus, construction and mining equipment.

Typical Applications

It should be processed and surface-treated when being applied. Its outstanding properties of electric insulation, high temperature resistance, chemical-corrosion resistance make it be the best choice in the wire stripping parts of the electric apparatus and generator, inner connecting wire, all kinds of thermo-junction parts of the insulation pipe as well as the basic material of marked pipe, brush tube and high temperature resistance composite tube.

 

Specification

Inside diameter of  Braided Basalt Sleeve is avaliable from 1 mm to 150 mm.

BSTFLEX Knitted Basalt Sleeve

Knitted Basalt Sleeve is manufactured from Basalt fibre yarn knitted to form a sleeve which provides excellent thermal protection. Good anti-fray and handling due to knitted construction.

 

Knitted Basalt Sleeve allows the sleeve diameter to expand by up to 1.5times to accommodate flanges and bends that are common with most exhaust systems. Available in sizes from 1" ID up to 6" ID.

 

Knitted Basalt Sleeve possesses outstanding characteristics making it ideal for use on vehicle exhaust systems. Typical applications include heavy goods vehicles, buses, and certain automotive applications. It can also be used for high temperature Industrial applications over pipe-work and to protect hoses and cables etc. 

 

Knitted Basalt Sleeve is a highly engineered solution.

 

• Highly conformable / expandable – allowing ease of assembly over awkward shapes 

• Continuous thermal protection up to 750oC 

• Thick single wall construction provides optimal coverage and will not snag on exhaust welds etc. 

• Highly resistant to most oils, hydraulic fluids, fuels, acids and alkalis, and moisture. 

• When installed High Temperature Basalt Sleeving is designed to help keep exhaust gases as hot as possible 

 as they flow through the exhaust to catalytic converters. 

 This increases burn efficiency and helps to reduce emissions. 

• Because of its insulation properties, the sleeve will also provide protection to sensitive electrical

 wiring and components running close to the exhaust system. 

• Good abrasion resistance
