High Temperature Textiles
High Temperature Textiles - Heat Resistant Insulation Materials
Vitcas high temperature textiles are engineered for use in high-heat industrial and commercial environments, offering reliable thermal insulation, flame resistance, and mechanical durability. Manufactured from advanced fibres such as glass fibre, ceramic fibre, silica, and basalt, the range includes products capable of withstanding continuous temperatures from 180°C to 1260°C. These textiles are ideal for applications in fire protection, heat containment, equipment insulation, and high-temperature sealing across sectors including power generation, metallurgy, automotive, marine, and manufacturing.
Thermal Protection from 180°C to 1260°C
Vitcas offers a wide selection of thermal textile solutions including: Thermal Fire Ropes - braided and knitted sealing ropes for stoves, boilers, and flues. Thermal Tapes and Webbing - for insulating gaps, pipework, and flanges. High Temperature Fabrics - loomstate and coated fabrics for curtains, blankets, and shields. Insulation Jackets - removable covers for valves, pipework, and industrial plant equipment. Lagging Ropes and Ceramic Sealing Strip - for furnaces, kilns, and fire door seals. Needle Mat Felt - high-density insulation for acoustic and thermal applications. Exhaust Pipe Insulation Wraps - for automotive and industrial exhaust heat control. High Temperature Sewing Threads - for assembling and repairing insulation products. Electrical Insulation Tapes - for thermal and dielectric protection of cables. Filtration Fabrics - used in high-temperature dust and gas filtration systems.
