No Moisture Barrier Required
The flexible ULT system insulation system does not need to install a moisture barrier. Due to the unique closed cell structure and polymer blend formulation, LT low temperature elastomeric material has been highly resistant to water vapor permeation.

Insulation maintains excellent flexibility at extremely low temperatures ranging from -200℃ to 125℃.
Effectively reduces and protects the system against the risk of Corrosion Under Insulation (CUI).
Consistently low thermal conductivity translates to highly efficient thermal performance.
Offers fast and simple installation solutions, even when dealing with complex configurations and shapes.

No, the ULT system features a unique closed-cell structure and specialized polymer blend formulation, providing high inherent resistance to water vapor permeation and eliminating the need for an external moisture barrier.
The ULT low-temperature elastomeric insulation system maintains its flexibility and performance at extremely low temperatures, operating within a wide range of -200°C to 125°C.
By maintaining a built-in resistance to moisture ingress and maintaining a neutral/alkaline pH value of ≥8.0, the insulation prevents corrosive moisture from reaching the pipe surface, drastically reducing CUI risks.
The thermal conductivity (tested via ASTM C177) for the ULT material ranges from 0.028 W/(m·K) at -100°C to 0.021 W/(m·K) at -165°C. For the LT material, it ranges from 0.033 W/(m·K) at 0°C to 0.028 W/(m·K) at -50°C.
Yes. Because of its elastomeric composition, the insulation remains flexible even at cryogenetic temperatures, ensuring easy cutting, shaping, and quick installation on elbows, valves, and complex fittings.
The standard dimensions are available in two primary thicknesses: 3/4" (20mm) thickness supplied in 10m × 1m rolls (10㎡ total), and 1" (25mm) thickness supplied in 8m × 1m rolls (8㎡ total).
