VEXTRA® (GLV) Premium Tape
VEXTRA® (GLV) Premium tape is a noncombustible vermiculite-coated fiberglass tape. The vermiculite coating acts as a superior heat-resistant armor for use on small steam lines, hose coverings, expansion joints, and manifold wraps. It is available either plain or bolt hole. This light weight, non-irritating tape remains stable to 1500°F (815°C). If adhesive is used to aid in the installation process, the temperature resistance is limited to 300°F. After the material is in place, however, the insulation tape usually mechanically bonded so that the adhesive is no longer necessary.
Sample available in .060″ and .125″ only. Contact Customer Service for special requests.

VEXTRA® Textiles are 100% fiberglass coated with a golden vermiculite solution made of plate-like mineral crystals. This non-combustible coating acts like armor when heat strikes the fabric, causing the heat to travel across the fabric rather than through it, shielding the fiberglass from the heat source.
