Bulk Fiber

Bulk fiber is a versatile and high-performance insulation material used in various industrial applications requiring superior thermal insulation, lightweight properties, and resistance to high temperatures. Available in different compositions such as ceramic, alumina-silica, and bio-soluble fibers, bulk fiber is a go-to solution for industries needing reliable insulation in harsh environments. Whether used as a raw material for fabricating other insulation products or directly as loose-fill insulation, bulk fiber delivers consistent performance and durability.

What is Bulk Fiber?

Bulk fiber is a loose, fluffy insulation material composed of high-temperature-resistant fibers. It is typically made from materials such as alumina-silica or bio-soluble compositions, which provide excellent thermal stability, low thermal conductivity, and resistance to chemical attack. Bulk fiber can be used in its raw form or processed into various insulation products, such as blankets, modules, and vacuum-formed shapes.

  • Materials: Commonly made from ceramic fibers, alumina-silica fibers, and bio-soluble fibers, designed to meet different thermal and environmental requirements.

  • Forms Available: Supplied in loose bulk form, it can be easily processed into other shapes or used as-is for loose-fill insulation.

  • Applications: Ideal for filling voids, packing expansion joints, and providing insulation in furnaces, kilns, and other high-temperature equipment.

Key Features of Bulk Fiber

  • High-Temperature Resistance
    Capable of withstanding temperatures up to 2600°F (1427°C), ensuring reliable performance in extreme thermal environments.
     

  • Low Thermal Conductivity
    Offers excellent thermal insulation, reducing heat loss and enhancing energy efficiency in industrial processes.
     

  • Lightweight and Flexible
    Easy to handle and install, bulk fiber is lightweight and can conform to complex shapes, making it suitable for a wide range of applications.
     

  • Chemical and Thermal Stability
    Resistant to most chemicals and thermal shock, bulk fiber maintains its integrity even in harsh conditions, ensuring long-term performance.
     

  • Versatile Applications
    Can be used as a raw material for manufacturing other insulation products or directly applied as loose-fill insulation for custom needs.

Applications of Bulk Fiber

  • Furnace and Kiln Insulation
    Used to fill voids, gaps, and expansion joints in industrial furnaces and kilns, providing effective insulation and minimizing heat loss.
     

  • Raw Material for Fabrication
    Serves as a base material for the production of ceramic fiber blankets, boards, modules, and other high-temperature insulation products.
     

  • High-Temperature Seals and Packing
    Ideal for creating seals and packing in high-temperature equipment, where flexibility and thermal resistance are critical.
     

  • Loose-Fill Insulation
    Used as loose-fill insulation in spaces that are difficult to access or require flexible insulation solutions, such as in complex refractory linings or around piping.
     

  • Thermal Barriers
    Acts as a thermal barrier in various industrial applications, protecting equipment and structures from extreme heat.
