All YKL elastomeric insulations are engineered and manufactured for HVAC and other industrial applications. With closed cell structure YKL insulations effectively retard heat flow and prevent condensation when properly installed. The environmental friendly materials are manufactured without the use of CFC’s, HFC’s or HCFC’s. They are also formaldehyde free, low VOCs, fiber free, dust free and resistant to mold and mildew.
YKL K1 Tube SS is the self-seal form of YKL K1 Tube pre-coated with KingGlue 520 or 520 LV where low VOC is required. YKL K1 Tube SS provides significant savings on installation time and labor. For other performance features please refer to the YKL K1 Tube brochure.
For YKL K1 Tube SS insulation sizes available please refer to the latest YKL Insulation Price List.
KEY PERFORMANCE MEASURE
﹣297°F to ﹢220°F(﹣183°C to ﹢105°C) temperature range
0.08 perm-inch (1.16×10-13Kg/m?s?Pa ) water vapor transmission
0.27 Btu-in. /h?ft2? °F (0.039W/mK ) thermal conductivity values
Flame-spread index of less than 25 and smoke-developed index of less than 50
APPLICATIONS
YKL K1 Tube SS insulation is used to retard heat transmission and control condensation from chilled-water and refrigeration systems. It also efficiently reduces heat transfer for hot-water plumbing and liquid-heating and dual-temperature piping.
YKL K1 Tube SS is ideal for applications in:
Ductwork
Dual temperature and low pressure steam lines
Process piping
Air-conditioner, including hot gas piping
YKL K1 Tube SS insulation can be snapped over piping already connected. Apply firm and even pressure along the entire longitudinal seam for proper seal. When installed outdoors, KingPaint, a weather-resistant protective finish, is recommended to be applied over the surface to achieve maximum UV protection.
