General Info
ZIRCAR Refractory Sheet Type RS-MS Moldable Sleeving is a moist woven alumina composite sleeving. It is supplied in a wet form ready for the fabrication of custom shapes. It can be cut to size with a knife or scissors, wrapped around a suitable form, air dried, and immediately put into service. It is ideal for applications up to up to 1300°C(2373°F).
ZIRCAR Refractory Sheet Type RS-MS Moldable Sleeving is odorless and contains no asbestos. Its high alumina content makes RS-MS highly resistant to many environments including molten aluminum as well as many types of fuel oils. When hardened with AL-Hard Refractory Sheet RS-MS become “rock hard” for greater strength. The many uses for Type RS-MS Sleeving include: cover for rings and saddles used in the annealing of hand blown glassware; asbestos sleeving replacement metal tube and pipe insulation; hose line and cable protection; and high temperature gaskets.
