Questions, answered.
The ones we get most about Rockwool Pipe Section. Anything else? Ask on WhatsApp and an estimator will reply.
What temperature can Rockwool Pipe Section take?
Temperature resistance: Up to 750°C, as per the datasheet. Tell us your operating temperature and we will confirm the right grade before we quote.
What sizes and grades does Rockwool Pipe Section come in?
Thicknesses: 25 - 100 mm; Pipe diameter: ½" to 18"; Densities: 100 - 150 kg/m³. If you need a size that is not listed, ask us and we will check what the manufacturer can make.
Where is Rockwool Pipe Section used?
Typical uses: gas and steam pipes; hot water pipes; oil pipelines.
Can SGPL supply and install Rockwool Pipe Section?
Yes. We supply it on its own, or our own crews install it as part of our hot insulation, thermal insulation and insulation cladding and finishing work. That starts with a site visit and a written specification, and ends with a joint measurement at handover.
Is Rockwool Pipe Section in stock, and do you send a datasheet?
We hold Rockwool Pipe Section 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.
