ASBESTOS CARDBOARD KAON-1

General Features and Advantages

Asbestos cardboard KAON 1 is a dense fibrous material for extensive purposes. 

It is produced at the factory in the form of sheets (sheet size 800x1000 mm). It is resistant to high temperatures (up to 500 °C). 

Asbestos cardboard provides reliable insulation, protects against overheating, seals joints, and eliminates possible heat losses. 

Chrysotile asbestos is a fine-fibered silicate mineral possessing the following characteristics: elastic, chemically inert, and fire-resistant. 

Starch acts as a binding agent in asbestos cardboard. 

Advantageous characteristics of asbestos cardboard: 

The high content of fine-fibered chrysotile fiber in sheet asbestos products ensures high operational as well as technical characteristics: 

Asbestos cardboard can be used in places where the temperature does not exceed 500 °C; 

The material can be cut along and across; 

It does not emit toxic substances during heating; 

If you soak an asbestos sheet, it can be given a curved shape, which will be preserved upon drying; 

Sheet asbestos cardboard is distinguished by enhanced sound insulation properties; 

The material withstands numerous temperature changes (heating/cooling); 

Asbestos cardboard is biologically stable due to the absence of organic elements in the composition of the material; 

The material is resistant to stretching in all directions; 

The service life of asbestos cardboard is up to 50 years. 

Application Fields

In what fields of activity is asbestos cardboard applied? 

The product is considered an excellent alternative to analogues made of plastic or metal. In addition, asbestos cardboard is not among the materials that ignite when heated or emit toxic substances dangerous to the human body. 

This allows it to be used for thermal insulation of industrial furnaces and boilers. 

Also, asbestos cardboard is used for the purpose of sealing stationary joints of different aggregates and mechanisms. 

Flat asbestos cardboard finds application as a sealant for stationary and moving joints: 

In ventilation systems, in pipelines, and steam pipelines; 

In safes and elevators, as well as bank vaults; 

In the manufacture of glass, bricks, or porcelain; 

In the manufacture of household and refrigeration equipment; 

For thermal insulation of drying chambers, heating systems, and thermal insulation boilers; 

In the metallurgical industry. 

Asbestos cardboard is a universal insulation material. You can buy asbestos cardboard for its operation in a wide variety of fields of activity. 

Thanks to its resistance to various kinds of influences and high strength of the material, asbestos cardboard will serve you for more than one decade.
