Ceramic fibre
Ceramic Fibre Blanket
Needled high temperature refractory insulation
Standard ceramic fibres are made from inorganic materials, primarily alumina, silica and zirconia, with long refractory fibre. They are binder free and needled, which gives very high thermal stability, and their physical and refractory properties suit high temperature work. Under normal conditions ceramic fibre can be applied at 1260°C. It has very low thermal conductivity.

Why specify Ceramic Fibre Blanket
8 reasons it earns its place on site.
Very thin and effective insulation
Low heat storage due to low density
Faster heating and cooling in furnaces, so higher productivity and fuel saving
Light weight keeps the furnace structure lighter and cost effective
Easy to install
Good acoustic property
Chemically inert with very low chloride content
Leachable chloride less than 10 ppm

Thicknesses: 12, 25, 38, 50 mm; Dimensions: 0.610 m W x 7.3 m L; Densities: 64 / 96 / 128 kg/m³. If you need a size that is not listed, ask us and we will check what the manufacturer can make.
Where is Ceramic Fibre Blanket used?
Typical uses: reformer / heater / furnace / kiln lining, coke ovens, expansion gaps; thermal barrier for the automotive industry; boilers, ducts, pipelines, steam and gas turbine insulation; petrochemical industry, metal processing, power plants.
Can SGPL supply and install Ceramic Fibre Blanket?
Yes. We supply it on its own, or our own crews install it as part of our hot insulation and thermal insulation work. That starts with a site visit and a written specification, and ends with a joint measurement at handover.
Is Ceramic Fibre Blanket in stock, and do you send a datasheet?
We hold Ceramic Fibre Blanket at our Vatva GIDC (Ahmedabad) and Morbi stockyards. You can download the datasheet on this page, and we can send the test certificate with the dispatch. Send your enquiry before 4 pm and you will usually hear back the same working day.
