Ceramic Fiber Cloth

Ceramic fiber cloth in Kenya is a flexible, woven high-temperature insulation material designed for demanding industrial environments. It is manufactured from high-purity alumino-silicate fibers reinforced with glass or stainless-steel wire, giving it excellent strength, thermal stability, and durability even under continuous heat exposure.

Because it can handle temperatures up to 1260°C, ceramic fiber cloth is ideal for sealing, insulation, and fire protection in furnaces, boilers, turbines, exhaust ducts, and other heat-intensive systems across Kenya and East Africa.

Key Technical Properties of Ceramic Fiber Cloth Kenya

• Temperature Resistance: Continuous service up to 1260°C (2300°F)

• Composition: Alumino-silicate fiber with optional stainless steel wire reinforcement

• Thickness Range: 1.5 mm – 6 mm

• Density: 500 – 700 kg/m³

• Width: 1 m standard (custom sizes available)

• Thermal Conductivity: < 0.15 W/m·K at 600°C

• Color: White

• Packaging: 30 m  rolls

Moreover, the cloth maintains its structure during rapid temperature changes, ensuring long-term performance.

Performance Advantages

1. Superior Heat Resistance
Withstands extreme temperatures, maintaining structural integrity and insulation performance even in direct flame contact.

2. Mechanical Flexibility
The fabric’s interwoven structure allows easy cutting, sewing, or wrapping around curved surfaces like pipes, joints, or furnace doors.

3. Chemical & Corrosion Stability
Resists oils, solvents, and most corrosive agents — ensuring long-term durability in refineries, chemical plants, and cement kilns.

4. Energy Efficiency
Reduces radiant heat loss, enhancing process efficiency and protecting surrounding equipment and personnel.

5. Fire Safety & Spark Protection
An excellent choice for welding curtains, blankets, and spark shields — ensuring compliance with industrial safety standards.

Applications

FAQs

Q1. What makes ceramic fiber cloth better than fiberglass cloth?

Ceramic fiber cloth withstands much higher temperatures (up to 1260°C compared to 550°C for fiberglass) and maintains its integrity under direct flame.

Q2. Can it be used outdoors?

Yes, but for long-term outdoor exposure, an aluminum or weather-resistant coating is recommended to protect the fibers.

Q3. Do you supply across East Africa?

Yes. Bioflex Insulation Ltd supplies ceramic fiber cloth to Kenya, Uganda, Tanzania, and Rwanda, with reliable logistics and after-sales support.

Q4. Can I request a technical data sheet (TDS)?

Absolutely. You can request a TDS or customized specifications through our homepage.
