What is Ceramic Fiber Tape?
Ceramic fiber tape is a flexible woven tape manufactured from ceramic fiber yarns. For strength and durability, it is often reinforced with fiberglass filament or stainless steel wire.
This makes it ideal for:
- Thermal insulation in extreme heat environments.
- Sealing and gasketing in boilers, furnaces, and ovens.
- Protective wrapping for hot pipes, exhausts, and expansion joints.
Its combination of heat resistance, flexibility, and durability makes it a preferred insulation product in Kenya’s industrial, construction, and energy sectors.
