Heat Sleeves Insulation

What Are Industrial Heat Insulation Sleeves?

Industrial heat insulation sleeves are flexible protective tubes made from high-temperature resistant materials such as fiberglass, silicone, and basalt. These sleeves wrap around wiring, hoses, and pipes to provide a barrier against radiant and convective heat.

They are especially critical in applications where direct heat exposure from machinery, engines, or exhaust systems can cause premature failure of components.

Why You Need Wire Insulation Sleeve for Industrial Use

In heavy-duty industrial environments, wires are often subjected to intense heat, abrasion, and chemical exposure. A wire insulation sleeve for industrial use helps to:

• Prevent wire burnout
• Minimize the risk of short circuits or fires
• Ensure consistent electrical performance
• Reduce unplanned downtime

Kool Wrap’s heat sleeves are designed to withstand extreme temperatures while remaining flexible and easy to install.

Key Benefits of Industrial Heat Insulation Sleeves

Investing in high-performance industrial heat insulation sleeves protects your systems and boosts the reliability of your operations.

Top Features:

• Withstands temperatures up to 550°C (and higher for certain models)
• Resists abrasion, chemicals, and moisture
• Easy to cut and install without tools
• Available in various sizes and thicknesses
• Ideal for use in static or dynamic (moving) components

These sleeves are commonly used in mining trucks, heavy industrial plants, transport fleets, and energy facilities where constant exposure to high heat is expected.

Industrial Braided Heat Sleeves: Built for Tough Conditions

Kool Wrap offers industrial braided heat sleeves for applications where extra durability and flexibility are needed. The braided construction enhances abrasion resistance and ensures the sleeve conforms snugly to the cable or hose it’s protecting.

Applications of Braided Sleeves:

• Hydraulic hose protection near engines
• High-current wiring in generators and switchboards
• Thermal shielding in automotive and marine environments
• Industrial robots and manufacturing lines

Our industrial braided heat sleeves not only protect from heat but also add a layer of mechanical defense against rubbing, pinching, and chemical spills.

Wire and Hose Protection Made Simple

Kool Wrap’s heat sleeves are available in a variety of inner diameters, lengths, and material types, making it easy to choose the right solution for your application.

Installation Is Quick and Simple:

• Choose the appropriate sleeve size for your wire or hose
• Slide the sleeve into place, or use a split design for retrofitting
• Secure ends with clamps, tape, or heat-shrink material

There’s no need for expensive tools or installation teams — your existing maintenance staff can fit the sleeves in minutes.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

1. What temperatures can industrial heat insulation sleeves handle?

Most of our sleeves can handle continuous exposure up to 550°C, with some materials resisting even higher peak temperatures.

2. What materials are used in Kool Wrap heat sleeves?

We use fiberglass, silicone-coated fiberglass, basalt, and braided materials designed for flexibility and heat resistance.

3. Can these sleeves be used for electrical wire insulation?

Yes. Our wire insulation sleeves for industrial use are ideal for protecting electrical wires from heat and mechanical wear.

4. How do I choose the correct size?

Measure the outer diameter of your hose or wire bundle and choose a sleeve that fits snugly but can still slide over easily.

5. Are industrial braided heat sleeves better than regular ones?

Braided sleeves offer higher abrasion resistance and are better suited for dynamic or high-vibration environments.

6. Is the sleeve waterproof?

Most fiberglass-based sleeves are water-resistant but not waterproof. For moisture protection, we offer silicone-coated versions.

7. Can I cut the sleeve to the exact length I need?

Yes. Sleeves can be trimmed to length using scissors or shears without fraying excessively.

8. Are the sleeves reusable?

Yes, in most cases, the sleeves can be removed and reused during maintenance if they’re still in good condition.

9. Will the sleeve melt or catch fire?

Our sleeves are made from fire-resistant materials designed not to ignite or melt under rated conditions.

10. Do you offer custom lengths or bulk pricing?

Yes. Kool Wrap can supply custom-cut lengths and provide discounts for large volume or wholesale orders.
