Metal Encapsulated Insulation
Metal Encapsulated Insulation Blankets provide solutions to numerous high temperature thermal management problems. The design, which consists of thin gage metal encapsulating a core insulation material, provides a durable system that can withstand extremely harsh environments. Standard uses include heat containment, heat protection, and fire protection.

Design Considerations
Removable vs. Integral Systems
The insulation blankets can be removable and reusable, or permanently attached to the end use component.
Encapsulating Material
Various operating conditions will require different performance characteristics. The encapsulating foil can be stainless steel, inconel or titanium.
Core Insulation Material
Evaluation of all design conditions (thermal profile requirements, weight limits, clearance limits, vibration, etc.) will dictate material selection. We perform comparative analysis of all potential options and provide customers with a range of solutions to choose from.
Attachment Method
There are numerous methods available, and each application is evaluated for optimum attachment techniques.
