Vermiculite is a natural mineral which provides a natural inorganic finish to silica cloth.This coating provides short temperature resistance of 1000C degree and increased continuous temperature resistance temperature upto 800C degree.Vermiculite coated on silica cloths increase the products' abrasion resistance and enhances its ability to withstand direct flame.It also provide a dust suppression coating which allows for a safer work environment.Vermiculite coated silica cloth fabric is used for heat shield,flange and valve covers,Welding curtains,Expansion joints and other equipment.
Vermiculite Coated Silica Cloth is a high-silica fabric coated with vermiculite for extreme heat, spark and molten-splash protection. The coating raises the working temperature and resists abrasion and weld spatter.
It withstands continuous temperatures around 1000°C (with higher peaks), making it ideal for foundry and steel-mill welding blankets and high-temperature covers.
