Standard Specification for Mineral Fiber Pipe Insulation
Show Complete Document History
The following bibliographic material is provided to assist you with your purchasing decision:
Scope
1.1 This specification covers mineral fiber insulation produced to form hollow cylinders for standard pipe and tubing sizes. The mineral fiber pipe insulation may be molded or precision v-grooved, with one or more walls split longitudinally for use on pipe temperatures up to 1400F (760C).
1.2 For satisfactory performance, properly installed protective vapor retarders or barriers should be used on sub-ambient temperature applications to reduce movement of moisture through or around the insulation to the colder surface. Failure to use a vapor barrier can lead to insulation and system damage. Refer to Practice C 921 to aid material selection.
1.3 Flexible mineral fiber wrap products such as perpendicular-oriented fiber insulation rolls, non-precision or manually scored block or board, or flexible boards or blankets used as pipe insulation, are not covered by this specification.
1.4 The values stated in inch-pound units are to be regarded as the standard. The values given in parentheses are for information only.
