Silica cloth is high temperature fabric used for a wide range of insulation and protection applications in industry, excellent heat resistance.
Silica cloth is a special fiberglass cloth which contains more than 96% silicon dioxide, loss on Ignition less than 10%, it can withstand continuous temperatures of 1000 D.C. for long periods of time, and instantaneous temperatures of up to 1600 D.C. The product has been used extensively in the replacement of asbestos.
Silica fabric is primarily used in hot work such as welding and burning operations. It is useful for high temperature thermal and electrical insulation in severe application environments.
