High Temperature Rope
An ideal high temperature gasket where extra abrasion resistance and/or the ability to withstand oil, moisture, molten splash or flame is required.
Silicone rubber coated E-glass rope
PyroRope™ is an E-glass braided or knitted rope with a thick coating of iron oxide red silicone rubber. Rated for 500°F (260°C) continuous exposure and 3000°F (1650°C) intermittent, PyroRope™ makes an ideal gasket where you require thermal performance plus resistance to wear and exposures.
A variety of knitted or braided ropes can be used as the E-glass substrate to vary the compression density.
Diameters from 1/4″ (6 mm) to 3″ (76 mm).
