Depending on your purpose, rope lagging can be made from ceramic or glass fibre with a variety of braiding possibilities. Glass rope lagging is produced using blown glass fibres with a conventional partial overbraid of glass strands. A blown ceramic fibre core with a standard partial overbraid of either nickel chrome wire or glass yarn reinforced ceramic yarns is used to create ceramic rope lagging.
Temperature: +550°C (glass fibre), +1260°C (ceramic fibre base fabric).
Please note that the ceramic fibre products can be produced with either a glass yarn or wire reinforcement. The glass yarn reinforcement is rated up to +550°C, the wire reinforcement is rated up to +1000°C.
