RockLoyd
is precisely engineered Resin Bonded Fibrous Insulation to offer maximum resistance
to heat passage. RockLoyd fibres are spun from selected rocks, melted at 1600
° C and blended to a carefully adjusted chemical composition. Their centrifugally
spun fibres have a diameter 1/20th that of human hair. These are felted using
State of the Art Technology into bonded and cured pipe sections to optimum density
and resilience. Over 25 million sq. mts of RockLoyd Insulation is in service in
prestigious projects within the country saving millions of tonnes of fuel year
after year.

WHY
BONDED & MACHINE STITCHED
RockLoyd
mattress, like all scientifically processed fibrous insulants, is composed of
fibres which are laid in the optimum configuration to offer maximum resistance
to heat flow. To retain these exceptional properties up to point of end -use,
fibres are interlocked by lightly bonding them together using a thermosetting
binder.
Subsequently, mattress are factory stitched to specified wire mesh
using a continuous stitching machine to permit a ready-to-use configuration.

Fibres, in the first place, are free of impurities like halides (Chlorides&
Fluorides) and sulphides which are commonly found in other materials such as calcium
silicate. This is due to the fact that rockloyd fibres are manufactured by dry
manufacturing process and its faint alkanity actually fights corrosive reactions.
It meets various critical specifications including ASTM C-795 requirement specified.
This feature is responsible for its exclusive selection for critical applications
such as Nuclear power plants, Chemical and Petrochemical industry, Ship building,
Railway Coaches & systems where corrosion is of vital significance. Each year,
new applications are being found for this extremely versatile product. |
