K-FLEX ST AL CLAD

is a high-performance elastomeric insulation system integrated with a uv-resistant aluminium cladding designed for both indoor and outdoor industrial and civil applications. this system provides a durable, shock-resistant finish that eliminates the need for additional jacketing.

Superior Thermal Insulation

K-FLEX ST AL CLAD offers exceptional thermal insulation, reducing energy consumption and enhancing comfort for your space.

Durable and Long-Lasting

Built to last, our insulation material withstands the test of time, ensuring consistent performance and reliability.

Easy Product Installation

Our product is designed for straightforward installation, saving you time and reducing labour costs. Sealing tape and adhesive cladding foil are also available.

Extreme UV Resistance

Investing in K-FLEX ST AL CLAD leads to significant savings in the long term due to the once-off installation for outdoors and high traffic areas that carry impact risks.

Versatile Applications

Suitable for various settings, K-FLEX ST AL CLAD adapts easily to different projects and requirements.

Resistant to Moisture

Our insulation effectively prevents moisture buildup, helping to maintain a dry and safe environment.

PRODUCT OVERVIEW

The K-FLEX AL CLAD SYSTEM combines flexible closed-cell elastomeric foam with a multi-layered PVC-Alu covering. It is engineered to prevent condensation, reduce energy loss, and protect against mechanical abuse and chemical exposure.
 
  • UV and Weather Resistance: Specifically designed for outdoor use, the cladding offers approximately 11 years of UV stability and acts as a waterproof barrier against harsh atmospheric agents.
  • Mechanical Protection: The system is extremely robust and shock-resistant; it can regain its shape after being crushed during handling without leaving marks or fingerprints.

TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS

According to official documentation from K-FLEX, the system meets the following performance standards:
  • Temperature Range (Pipe): -40 °C to +110 °C.
  • Temperature Range (Sheet): -40 °C to +85 °C.
  • Solar Variant Temperature: Up to +150 °C for K-FLEX SOLAR AL CLAD.
  • Fire Rating: Typically rated Euroclass CL-s3,d0 for pipes and D-s3,d0 for sheets when used with K-FLEX ST insulation.
  • Vapour Permeability: Exceptionally low at 0.052 g/m²/d, ensuring long-term protection against moisture.

AVAILABLE FORMATS & ACCESSORIES:

The system is designed for “ready to install” applications, which can take literally minutes to apply compared to traditional metal jacketing.
 
  • K-FLEX AL CLAD Tubes/Pipes: Available in various diameters; some versions feature a longitudinal overlap for easier sealing.
  • K-FLEX AL CLAD Sheets: Available in standard and self-adhesive formats for large pipes and ventilation ducts.

 

  • Accessories:
    • K-FLEX AL CLAD Adhesive Tape: Used to seal joints and ensure a waterproof barrier.
    • K-FLEX AL CLAD Pipe Supports: Factory-fabricated clampable support collars for quick elevated installation without compromising insulation system.
    • K-FLEX AL CLAD FOIL: Essential for covering seams and other exposed insulation sections for system uniformity in aesthetics and protection performance.

PRIMARY APPLICATIONS

  • HVAC/Refrigeration: Insulation for chiller lines, refrigeration lines and chilled water systems to protect the insulation from harsh or outdoor environments.
  • Industrial Plants: Protection for outdoor pipework in oil, gas, and marine environments.
  • Exposed Ductwork: Ideal for ventilation and air conditioning ducts where vibration damping and UV protection are required.
