High Temperature Resistant Ladder Tapes and Webbings

	Product Datasheet
	Texturised Glass Tapes

Webbing and Ladder tapes

Construction:

Saveguard Texturised Glass Webbings are manufactured from high performance 9 micron E’ Glass filament texturised yarns. The glass filaments are assembled and voluminised by passing over high pressure air jets to produce a lofted yarn with outstanding insulation properties. These yarns are then closely woven to produce a soft, durable and flexible tape suitable for a wide range of thermal insulating and high temperature sealing applications.

Properties:

Glass Yarns have a minimal amount of surface dressing to assist in processing, this is usually organic i.e. starch or silane and will disappear at temperatures above 200C. Untreated Glass Fabrics are suitable for continuous use at temperatures of up to 550C however tensile strength continues to reduce noticeably as temperatures increase above 400C. Base Fabric:
E Glass Fibres are:	are resistant to oils, solvents and most chemicals although contact with hydrofluoric acids, strong alkalis and live steam should be avoided.
	are non combustible.
	have a low thermal conductivity

Finish:	Low organic, anti-fray weavelock finish
Colour:	White
