Aeroflex AC5834 Pipe Insulation 5/8 in Wall 3/4 in Id R-5.2

Product Description

The AEROFLEX AC5834 is a closed-cell elastomeric pipe insulation sleeve designed to limit heat gain and condensation on refrigerant, chilled water, and domestic cold water piping. The AC5834 features a 5/8-inch wall thickness and fits pipe with a 3/4-inch inside diameter. With a thermal resistance rating of R-5.2, this insulation provides meaningful energy retention in both commercial and residential mechanical systems. HVAC technicians and plumbers use this product to wrap copper and other smooth pipe runs during new construction and retrofit installations.

The AC5834 is suited for refrigerant suction lines, chilled water supply and return lines, and cold domestic water piping where surface condensation must be controlled. The 5/8-inch wall thickness meets the insulation thickness requirements common in many commercial HVAC specifications and energy codes. It is appropriate for indoor applications in mechanical rooms, ceiling plenums, and exposed pipe runs where a flexible, self-sealing foam insulation is preferred.

Key Features

• 5/8-inch wall thickness for R-5.2 thermal resistance
• 3/4-inch inside diameter fits standard 3/4-inch copper and compatible pipe sizes
• Closed-cell elastomeric foam construction resists moisture vapor transmission
• Flexible material conforms to straight runs and bends without cracking
• Controls condensation on cold piping systems in humid environments

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation insulation sleeve for 3/4-inch inside diameter pipe, including copper refrigerant and chilled water lines commonly found in residential and light commercial HVAC and plumbing systems.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by licensed HVAC technicians or plumbers. Shut down and isolate the piping system before applying insulation to ensure dry, clean pipe surfaces for proper adhesion at seams. Butt seams and longitudinal slits should be secured with compatible elastomeric insulation adhesive to maintain the vapor barrier. Follow local mechanical codes and ASHRAE energy compliance requirements for minimum insulation thickness on refrigerant and chilled water lines.
