KingWrap is made of high-quality Kingflex Insulation, an elastomeric thermal insulation material. The self-adhering tape is supplied in convenient strip form, 2″(50mm) wide, 33′ & 49’ (10 & 15 m) long, and 1/8″(3mm) thick. No bands, wires, or additional adhesive needed. Available in standard cartons and tape dispensers. The expanded closed-cell structure of Kingflex makes it an efficient insulation. It is manufactured without the use of CFC’s, HFC’s or HCFC’s It is also formaldehyde free ,low VOCs, fiber free, dust free and resists mold and mildew.

Product Description

KingWrap provides a fast, easy method of insulating pipes and fittings. It is used to control condensation drip on domestic cold-water, chilled-water, and other cold piping bond with metal surfaces. It reduces heat loss when applied to hot-water lines that will operate up to 180°F (82°C). KingWrap may be used in conjunction with Pipe and Sheet Insulation.
Application Guidelines
Easy Installation
KingWrap is applied by removing release paper as the tape is spirally bond with metal surfaces. Tape should be applied with a spiral wrap to obtain a 50% overlap. Additional layers are added to build up insulation to the required thickness.
Wrap Selection
On cold piping, the number of wraps must keep the outer surface above the dew point of the air to control sweating. On hot lines, wraps are dictated by desired heat loss control. On dual-temperature lines, wraps sufficient to control cold-cycle sweating are adequate for the heating cycle. Multiple wraps are recommended.
Fittings & Valves
To insulate valves, tees, and other fittings, small pieces of tape should be cut to size and pressed into place, with no metal exposed. The fitting then is additionally over-wrapped with longer lengths for a durable and efficient job.
Key Advantage: The ultimate benefit of KingWrap is the ease with which it can be used to insulate short lengths of pipe and fittings in congested or hard-to-reach areas.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q:What is KingWrap used for?
KingWrap provides a fast, easy method of insulating pipes and fittings. It controls condensation drip on domestic cold-water, chilled-water, and other cold piping, and reduces heat loss on hot-water lines operating up to 180°F (82°C).
Q:What is the main advantage of KingWrap?
Its greatest advantage is the ease with which it can be used to insulate short lengths of pipe and fittings in congested or hard-to-reach areas where standard insulation might not easily fit.
Q:How should KingWrap be applied?
It is applied by removing the release paper as the tape is spirally bonded to metal surfaces. You should use a spiral wrap to obtain a 50% overlap. Additional layers can be added to build up the insulation to the required thickness.
Q:How many wraps are required for cold and hot piping?
On cold piping, use enough wraps to keep the outer insulation surface above the dew point of the air to control sweating. On hot lines, the number of wraps depends entirely on your desired heat loss control. Multiple wraps are recommended.
Q:How do you insulate valves, tees, and other fittings?
Cut small pieces of tape to size and press them directly into place, ensuring no metal is left exposed. The entire fitting is then over-wrapped with longer lengths of tape to ensure a durable and efficient result.
