What is Wire-Mesh Rock Wool? Uses, Advantages, and Prices
What is Wire-Mesh Rock Wool?
Wire-mesh rock wool is a professional thermal and fire insulation material mainly used in industrial facilities due to its high temperature resistance and mechanical strength. It is produced by covering one side of rock wool blanket (mat) with galvanized wire mesh.
It is widely used in high-temperature applications such as pipelines, boilers, tanks, chimneys, and industrial equipment.
Energy plants, petrochemical facilities, refineries, shipbuilding industry, mechanical systems, and heavy industrial structures are the main areas where wire-mesh rock wool is essential.
Among the most commonly used products in Turkey are İzocam wire-mesh rock wool blankets.
