Knauf Earthwool^™ 1000° Pipe Insulation


Description

Knauf Insulation Earthwool^™ 1000° Pipe Insulation is a molded, heavy-density, one-piece insulation made from inorganic glass fibers bonded with ECOSE^® Technology. It is produced in 3' lengths with or without a factory-applied jacket.

ASJ+ is the newest generation all-service jacket composed of aluminum foil, reinforced with a glass scrim bonded to a kraft paper interleaving with an outer film layer leaving no paper exposed. A matching ASJ+ butt strip is furnished in the carton for each section. The jacket is white, and the longitudinal lap of the jacket has a self-sealing adhesive.

Earthwool is the new benchmark that stands apart for its genuine sustainability, unsurpassed performance and consistently high product quality.

ECOSE Technology is a revolutionary binder based on rapidly renewable bio-based materials rather than nonrenewable petroleum-based chemicals such as phenol, formaldehyde or acrylics. ECOSE Technology reduces Knauf Insulation's binder embodied energy and contains no phenol, formaldehyde, acrylics or artificial colors found in traditional fiber glass insulation.

Earthwool 1000° Pipe Insulation is used to insulate iron and copper piping in industrial applications and in commercial and institutional buildings. Earthwool 1000° Pipe Insulation is suitable for hot, cold, concealed and exposed piping systems operating at temperatures from 0°F-1000°F (-18°C to 538°C). Additional weather protection is needed outdoors.

• Offers excellent resistance to heat loss or gain, which saves energy and lowers operating costs
• A low thermal conductivity of .23 at 75°F (24°C)

• Available with self-sealing lap, which eliminates need for staples, additional material and tools
• Fast, easy installation reduces labor costs

• Installed properly, the foil vapor retarder and pressure-sensitive lap assure a positive vapor seal

• All Earthwool 1000° Pipe Insulation, plain or jacketed, meets the fire and smoke safety requirements of most federal, state and local building codes

• Pipe size, wall thickness, and Proto 25/50-Rated PVC fitting cover size are printed in a repeat pattern along the longitudinal lap
• Easy identification at job site
• Simplifies restocking
• After application, print is covered by the lap for a neat appearance

• Professional finished appearance—dimple and wrinkle resistant
• Cleanable with a wet cloth and soapy water
• Moisture resistant to intermittent, short duration liquid water exposure, such as precipitation during construction phase
• ASJ+ has substantially less degradation and discoloration when exposed to UV
• ASJ+ meets ASTM C1136 Type I, II, III, IV, and meets VIII based on the 85% better puncture resistance of ASJ+ (Mullen Burst)
• Excellent SSL adhesion

• Certified for indoor air quality as a low emitting product by The GREENGUARD Environmental Institute to both the GREENGUARD Certification Program^SM and the more stringent GREENGUARD Children and Schools^SM standard.

Carbon negative: meaning Knauf insulation products used for thermal insulating purposes recover the energy that it took to make them in just hours or a few days, depending on the application. Once installed, the product continues to save energy and reduce carbon generation as long as it is in place.

• Earthwool fiber glass insulation contains three primary ingredients:
• Sand, one of the world's most abundant and renewable resources
• 40% post-consumer recycled bottle glass
• ECOSE Technology which reduces binder embodied energy by up to 70%
• It is anticipated to reduce its Global Warming Potential (GWP) by approximately 4%, a significant reduction in our carbon footprint
