TUFFINSUL Rigid Slabs range offers superior rigidity and durability for application areas where high levels of compressive strength are required.


FACING TYPES


TUFFINSUL Rigid Slabs for building applications are unfaced, or with a facing of glass reinforced aluminium foil / Kraft paper laminate (FSK), ALG and Black Glass Tissue (BGT).

Fiber : Up to 750 °C
Facing : 100 °C
At temperatures in excess of 230 °C a limited migration of binder may occur in the insulation in contact with the hot face. This does not impair the insulation performance.


MOISTURE ABSORPTION PERFORMANCE


TUFFINSUL Rigid Slabs absorb less than 1% by volume when tested in accordance with BS 2972, ASTM C1104 / 1104 M, and do not absorb moisture from ambient air or from water by capillary action. Only water under pressure can enter into stone wool insulation products; however, it quickly dries out due to the open cell structure of Rigid Slabs. When tested in accordance to ASTM E96, FSK-faced Rigid Slabs achieve water vapour permeability of ≤ 0.02 perm, ALG-faced Rigid Slabs achieve zero water vapour permeability.


APPLICATIONS


TUFFINSUL Rigid Slabs are used for thermal and acoustic insulation where high compressive strength is required such as over-deck, floors, sandwich panels, and dry wall partitions.

TUFFINSUL Lamella range offers superior rigidity and durability for application areas where high levels of compressive strength are required.


HOW TO USE LAMELLA?


Check the fiber orientation of the TUFFINSUL Lamella before sandwiching in between two metal surfaces with glue. Utmost care should be taken to ensure that the fibers are oriented perpendicular to the width of the two metal surfaces, in order to achieve optimum compression strength.


INSTALLATION PROCEDURES


Before installing TUFFINSUL Lamella, make sure to clear away any dust or grease and dry the surface, and then place carefully over the surface to be insulated. Care should be taken to ensure that the Lamella fits properly and no gaps are left at the joints. Depending on the surface and equipment, pins or spacers should be used to fix the Lamella in place.


APPLICATIONS


TUFFINSUL Lamella is used for thermal and acoustic insulation where high compressive strength is required. It is commonly used in heavy loaded sandwich panels, floors and roofs.
