F/R Aluminum Foil Facing

Our F/R Aluminum Foil Facing is a specialized material designed to significantly improve the fire resistance and thermal performance of various insulation systems. This product, also known as AG-R701, is a key component for enhancing the safety and energy efficiency of buildings. Unlike a simple aluminum foil tape, this laminated facing provides a comprehensive barrier that is perfect for use on ducts and ductwork where fire and heat resistance are paramount.

Applications:

This fire-retardant Aluminum Foil Facing is essential for a wide range of residential, commercial, and industrial applications:

• Insulation Enhancement: Used in conjunction with other insulation materials like fiberglass, foam board, or mineral wool to enhance their thermal and fire-retardant properties in hvac systems.
• Fire Safety: Applied to ducts and building assemblies to provide a crucial line of defense against fire, ensuring compliance with safety regulations.
• Energy Efficiency: A key component for sealing and improving the performance of ductwork, contributing to a more sustainable and energy-efficient building.

Benefits

• Fire Retardance: Made with a fire-retardant aluminum foil and glass cloth reinforcement, this facing is designed to resist ignition and prevent the spread of flames. It holds a BS 476 Class O Fire-Rating approval.
• Enhanced Durability: The combination of a 7u foil layer and a 10×9 mesh glass cloth provides high tensile strength and good abrasive resistance, ensuring the material remains durable against physical damage and environmental factors.
• Improved Thermal Performance: This Aluminum Foil Facing acts as an effective vapor barrier, improving the overall insulation of a system and helping to reduce energy costs by preventing heat loss or gain in ductwork.
• Lightweight and Easy to Install: The material is lightweight and easy to handle, allowing for quick application using staples, nails, or adhesives, which can help cut down on labor time and costs.
• Versatile Thickness Options: Available in various thicknesses to meet the specific requirements of different applications.
