Lava Tube is a tube-shaped thermal barrier product designed to protect sensitive components in environments with excessive ambient temperatures and direct heat. The material is a specially formulated Heatshield Products fibrous thermal barrier weave made from volcanic rock. The basalt fiber allows Lava Tube to protect components from continuous temperatures of 1,2 degrees Fahrenheit, and intermittent temperatures of 2, degrees Fahrenheit. This makes Lava Tube an ideal and superior alternative to silicon-based thermal barrier sleeves in applications above 5 degrees Fahrenheit. Lava Tube is also extremely durable against abrasions and chemical exposure. Lava Tube has been designed with a special hook-and-loop fastener system, so it can be installed without the need for disassembling components or removing lines and hoses. Lava Tube is available in four diameters ranging from 1/2-inch to 1 1/2-inches, and either 3-foot long or 1-foot long rolls. Custom lengths are also available. It can be easily cut to length.
