Refrasil 1600°F 871°C
Vitreous Silica

Product Description
High temperature silica fibers are braided on the single conductors as well as the overall jacket. Because saturant is not used, this product is not recommended for abrasive applications. Each conductor as well as the overall jacket are braided with this high temperature yarn to provide maximum flexibility at extremely high temperatures. A tracer is braided into the insulation for polarity and calibration identification.
Performance Features
- Designed for continuous use at temperatures to 1600°F (871°C), intermittent use to 2325°F (1274°C).
- Not recommended for applications where the insulation may be subject to abrasion.
Applications
- Furnace survey thermocouples
- Heat treating
