Outstanding molten splash protection

Pyrotape® is a knitted, high-bulk, glass fiber tape, heavily coated with our proprietary compound of iron oxide red silicone rubber. The specially designed compound sheds molten metal splash immediately, so very little heat transfer occurs.

Pyrotape® can withstand repeated exposures to molten steel, molten aluminum, and molten glass, up to 3000°F (1650°C).

High-temperature protection for hoses and cables

Pyrotape® withstands continuous exposure to 500°F (260°C), up to 2000°F (1090°C) for 15-20 minutes, and up to 3000°F (1650°C) for 15-30 seconds.

When exposed to flame, the silicone rubber transforms into a crust, creating a protective SiO2 refractory layer.

Non-adhesive installation without line disconnection

Pyrotape® has an excellent modulus of elasticity and can wrap any diameter hose or cable—typically in a spiral wrap with a 50% overlap. Can be installed without disconnecting hoses or cables.
