Engineered for professional insulation applications, FKSE-7511B FSK facing combines the benefits of foil, scrim, and kraft to create a tough, reflective barrier layer.
The 2-way scrim reinforcement delivers balanced tensile strength in both machine and cross directions.
The 50gsm kraft paper ensures excellent flexibility and mechanical strength.
The heat-activated polyethylene backing simplifies installation by allowing direct bonding to insulation materials—eliminating the need for separate adhesives.
This FSK foil scrim kraft paper facing is ideal for use in HVAC ducts, pipe insulation, and metal building envelopes, providing dependable protection against heat, moisture, and air leakage.
The superior strength and thermal performance of this FSK Foil Scrim Kraft Facing make it indispensable in key commercial and industrial environments:

Q1: What is FSK Foil Scrim Kraft Facing used for?
FSK facing is used as a vapor barrier and reflective insulation facing in HVAC and building insulation systems.
Q2: Can it be applied directly to insulation materials?
Yes. The FKSE-7511B uses a heat-activated polyethylene backing that allows direct thermal bonding.
Q3: Why is 2-way scrim used in FSK Foil Scrim Kraft Facing?
A: The 2-way fiberglass scrim reinforcement is specifically chosen because it provides strong, balanced tensile strength in both the machine and cross directions, making the scrim paper resistant to tearing and punctures while remaining flexible enough for wrapping ducts and curved surfaces.
Q4: What’s the difference between 2-way and 3-way scrim?
2-way scrim provides balanced strength in two directions, ideal for applications needing flexibility and tensile balance.
We provide manufacturer-grade quality with proven thermal and vapor barrier performance. Our FSK Foil Scrim Kraft Facing complies with international insulation standards and offers an excellent balance of strength, flexibility, and powerful heat-sealing adhesion. This makes the FKSE-7511B the most reliable and cost-effective insulation facing solution for streamlined manufacturing and durable field installation.
