Aramid sleeve type EAS-K
The sleeve of EAS-K type is produced from aramid yarn resistant to high temperatures. Very thin fibres due to their unique structure are characterized by a perfect thermal insulation and extremely high mechanical strength. Lack of any dusting enables using in systems where, for hygienic or technological reasons, cheaper glass or ceramic insulations are unacceptable. Aramid sleeves are an excellent material for thermal insulation of hot elements in various types of industrial systems. Sleeves with the diameters to 50 mm are produced on braiding machines, while larger diameters - on special looms for multi-layer fabrics, which gives an excellent material density even at diameters in the range of 500 mm. The main area of application is thermal insulation of pipes, heaters and ducts with maximum operating temperature stated in the table below.
