Foil scrim kraft insulation facing, also known as FSK insulation facing, is a type of insulation material commonly used in the construction industry. DeYou Tape manufacturer the foil scrim kraft insulation facing with Aluminum Foil, Tri-directional Fiberglass (3-way scrim) and Kraft paper (50gsm/ 60gsm/ 100gsm). All 3 layers laminated together using a flame-retardant adhesive.
Foil Scrim Kraft Insulation Facing is a flame retardant, vapor-barrier, and facings for the insulation industry. It is most utilized with duct wrap, duct board and exposed surfaces of HVAC ductworks, exterior walls and ceilings. It can help to reduce heat loss in the winter and heat gain in the summer, making your home more energy-efficient. It can also help to reduce condensation and mold growth.
Foil Scrim Kraft Insulation Facing is laminated 5 layers of structure, the outer layer is Aluminum foil and Kraft paper. The middle layer is the Glass fiber layer double side coated with Flame-retardant adhesive, it increased tensile strength of FSK insulation, and the Aluminum foil and Kraft paper are firmly bonded.
Foil Scrim Kraft Insulation Facing as a laminated insulation facing protects insulation materials as like as a jacket. FSK insulation is most commonly used to exposed surfaces of Duct wrap, HVAC Ductwork, Exterior wall insulation, Metal building insulation, Pipeline insulation, Hot water tank insulation.
Benefits of using insulation facings:
It is a good insulator.
It is moisture resistant.
It is easy to install.
It is relatively inexpensive.
Drawbacks of using insulation facings:
It is not as effective as some other types of insulation, such as spray foam insulation.
It can be difficult to install in some areas, such as around windows and doors.
