This is a versatile thermal insulation and heat resistant material produced in sheet form using good quality fibres incombustible fillers and vegetable binders. It dose not suffer loss of strength upto 485°C. When suitably supported the board can be used satisfactorily at extreme temperatures upto approx. 1400°C.

The heat resistant discs are made from materials containing a higher percentage and a small quantity of organic binder, to withstand the application temperature exceeding 1000C.

 Service

Recommended for making up a solid block of supporting internal and external rollers in steel & glass plants. The discs possess adequate physical strength to withstand the machining operations to achieve a mirror finish.

Compestos

Asbestos laminated sheets are moulded from asbestos cloth with thermosetting resins and are specially developed for engineering applications. The high content of asbestos, superior grade of binder and special press-curing techniques impart high degree of mechanical strength. These materials are hard wearing, heat resistant and unaffected by a wide range of chemicals and solvents.

 Special Characteristics

Compestos  materials do not require specials lubricants. They are compatible with water emulsions, many chemicals and normal lubricating oils, grease, compounds, molybdenum di-sulphide paste etc.

Compestos materials are characterised by the following outstanding properties

Excellent dimensional stability

Good wear and chemical resistance

Low moisture absorption

Very high strength to weight ratio

High temperature resistance

High impact resistance

Excellent irradiation characteristics

Impervious to effects of moisture of marine exposure
