Smart–Shield manufacturers Extremely Flexible Pyro-Ropes which can withstand repeated exposures to molten steel, molten aluminium and molten glass up to 3000°F (1650°C). These specially designed compound sheds molten metal splash immediately, so very little heat transfer occurs.
These Ropes are fabricated from braided type E fiberglass and then coated with a high grade high- temperature silicone rubber.
Application:
Designed to provide a tight seal where a high degree of air or gas or liquid tightness is required. This rope can also be used in environments that are exposed to the hazards of high heat and occasional flame.
This rope can also be fabricated into a closed ring and is ideal for many gasket and sealing applications on boilers and similar industrial appliances.
Resistant to hydraulic fluids, lubricating oils, and fuels, providing an excellent high temperature seal for a variety of industrial uses.
Variants: Square or Round Braided
