NBV-IN Insulation

Our ball valve insulation is a versatile EPDM-based thermal solution designed to meet the demanding requirements of various heating applications. It combines ease of installation, advanced safety features, and long-lasting durability, making it a dependable choice for professionals in the HVAC and plumbing industries.

Design and Features

  • High-Temperature Efficiency
    EPDM-based, closed-cell, lightweight elastomeric material specifically designed for solar and steam heating applications with service temperatures up to +150C (302F).
  • Weatherproof Performance
    Engineered for resilience, the insulation features a tough outer skin that simplifies installation and enhances overall strength. Safety is a key focus—its material self-extinguishes and does not melt when exposed to flames, offering peace of mind in high-risk environments.
