Avikem Ceramic fiber Insulation is the best solution for your high temperature insulation. The mixture of refractory fibers and binders, which have low organic content is vacuum processed into high temperature ceramic fiber board that imparts good mechanical strength even after heating. Ceramic Board is a refractory board which has low thermal conductivity and high tensile strength and excellent resistance against thermal shock and chemical attack. Upon initial use at specific temperature the organic binder burns and turns the board to brownish giving slight odor. Once the binder is burnt out it will be pure white and odorless.
Ceramic Insulation Board is rated up to 2600F (1425C) peak and 2462F (1350C) continuous use with a melting point of 3200F(1760C).
Refractory Ceramic Fiber Board (RCF) is manufactured in various densities, temperature grades, widths & lengths. Ceramic Fiber Insulation Board is ideal for use in Wood Stove, Fireplaces, Pizza Ovens, Kilns, Forges, Internal Baffle of Wood Stove, Pellet Stove, Backup
Ceramic fiber Board is made of ceramic bulk fiber with special formulated binder produced by vacuum formed technology. The ceramic board has excellent toughness and intensity, high strength, lightweight, excellent thermal shock resistance and anti-stripping.
