13×42 K-FLEX SOLAR HT Tube Insulation - 2m

High-Temperature EPDM Elastomeric Insulation

K-FLEX® SOLAR HT 13×42mm tube insulation is specifically engineered for solar thermal systems and industrial high-temperature applications up to 150°C where standard elastomeric insulation cannot perform.

Technical Specifications:

• Dimensions: 13mm wall thickness × 42mm bore (suits 1+1/4" / DN40 copper pipe or DN32 iron pipe)
• Length: 2 metres per tube (40m per carton)
• Temperature range: -40°C to +150°C
• Material: EPDM (Ethylene-Propylene Diene Monomer) rubber
• Thermal conductivity: λ = 0.040 W/(m·K) at 0°C, 0.044 W/(m·K) at 40°C
• Fire rating: Euroclass E (EN 13501-1)
• UV resistance: Excellent - suitable for outdoor exposed installations
• pH neutral: Non-corrosive to pipework

Key Features:

• UV-protected EPDM for long-term outdoor durability
• Closed-cell structure for superior moisture resistance
• Flexible installation on complex pipe runs
• Increased energy efficiency in solar collectors and high-temperature systems
• CFC and HCFC free - environmentally responsible
• EPD certified (Environmental Product Declaration)

Applications:

• Solar thermal panel connections and collectors
• Industrial process heating pipework
• High-temperature outdoor pipe runs
• Heat pump installations
• Exposed installations requiring UV stability

The ideal solution where conventional elastomeric insulation reaches its temperature limits, combining flexibility and moisture resistance with enhanced thermal stability for demanding solar and industrial applications.
