Heat-expandable and fire-resistant sheet
VERMOFLEX
TOMBO™ No. 6760-A
VERMOFLEX is a heat-expanding fireproof sheet that is made by mixing a heat-expandable inorganic material and small amounts of organic and inorganic binders with alkali earth silicate (AES) wool, and then manufacturing it into a sheet form. Its thickness expands by about three-fold when heated (when heated without a load).
Board-form heat-insulation material for transfer, casting, and holding
LUMIBOARD
TOMBO™ No. 4720
LUMIBOARD is an asbestos-free, xonotlite-based calcium silicate board with excellent heat resistance. It has excellent machinability and is best suited as a transfer, casting, and holding type thermal insulation material for headers for troughs, spouts, floats, hot top rings in direct contact with molten aluminum alloys and holding furnaces for die casting.
There are two types of this product: L-14Z, which is the standard version, and L-100, which contains special reinforced fibers. This product is used as a material for casting parts such as hot top rings.
Molded shapes for molten aluminum vessel
LUMISUL
TOMBO™ No. 4723
LUMISUL is an integrated molded product that is molded and fired into various shapes as a lining material for receptacles that come into direct contact with molten aluminum alloy.
It has excellent dryness, strength, moisture retention, and cutting properties, and as it is heated and fired beforehand, it has excellent heat stability and durability, with almost no moisture harmful to molten aluminum.
Ceramic fiber based fibrous castable
LUMICAST™
TOMBO™ No. 4722
LUMICAST is a fiber-based amorphous thermal insulation material that is designed for lining various water receivers and gutters in direct contact with molten aluminum alloys.
Thin lagging glass cloth
MARINETEX
TOMBO™ No. 8200
MARINETEX is a lagging cloth and tape for thermal insulation applications, made by weaving ultra-fine glass fiber with bulky yarn and subjecting it to repeated special treatment to eliminate the prickling sensation of the glass.
It provides excellent thermal insulation and is flexible and stretchy, making it suitable for bonding and sewing. It can be easily installed even in the most complicated of places.
Thick lagging glass cloth
INSULTEX
TOMBO™ No. 8400/8401/8402/8403
Thick glass cloth, tape and yarn for thermal insulation, made by weaving bulky, treated glass yarn. A special heat treatment is applied to the product, and thus it has high strength and maintains its flexibility even at high temperatures unlike conventional glass cloth.
It is suitable for applications that require a cloth that is thicker than our TOMBO No. 8200 MARINETEX.
Aluminum-incorporated heat-resistant cloth sheet
ALUMINIZED CLOTH
TOMBO™ No. 8982
It is a product that is made by welding aluminum foil onto MARINETEX Cloth or INSULTEX Cloth or bonding an aluminum metallized film to the cloth.
Reusable flexible heat-insulation material
ENETHERMO™ R
TOMBO™ No. 4500-R
It is an attachable thermal insulation material that can be used repeatedly.
