With so many piping types (metallic and plastic) available on the market with varying outside diameters (OD’s), it can be a challenge to achieve the right fit with preformed pipe…

One of the greatest threats, sources of system failure, and maintenance/replacement costs to mechanical systems is corrosion to the metallic surfaces of piping and equipment.

A common failure point of mechanical insulation on cold (below-ambient) piping systems is at the hanger locations due to compression of insulation subjected to inadequate support or no insulation at…

Certain HVAC, refrigeration and plumbing pipe insulation applications require more than a single layer of Aeroflex® EPDM flexible elastomeric insulation to control condensation in demanding conditions such as a cold…

Refrigerant piping insulation is crucial for refrigeration systems. Refrigeration systems, also known as below-ambient systems, vary by application (commercial and industrial), temperature requirements (high & low), refrigerant types (traditional and…
