Glass knitted ropes type ESS/H and ESS/HC
Ropes of ESS/H type are made of textured boron-aluminum-silicon glass, type E , with temperature strength up to 650°C. As a result of applying knitting methods of manufacturing, appropriate softness and flexibility of sealing were obtained, which greatly facilitates installation in fireplace inserts. Impregnation with special high-temperature black dye (version ESS/HC) significantly improves the aesthetic value of the product (the rope is not visible at the background of inserts). Ropes are also available in a harder variety with a core (white, type ESS/H+R and black, type ESS/HC+R). Normally, the rope is delivered on paper spools in sections with the length of 50 or 100 rm.
