Atco Rubber Products 010-R8_12X5FT R8 Pipe Insulation Sleeve 12x5

Product Description

The ATCO RUBBER PRODUCTS 010-R8_12X5FT is a flat fiberglass pipe insulation sleeve designed for indoor HVAC piping applications. It combines a thick fiberglass insulation blanket with a reinforced metalized polyester vapor barrier jacket to deliver R8 thermal performance. Each section measures 12 inches in diameter coverage by 5 feet in length, eliminating the need to cut to length in the shop or on the jobsite. Rated for temperatures from -20 degrees F to 250 degrees F, this sleeve suits a wide range of residential and commercial HVAC installations. A starter cap is included for a complete, ready-to-install assembly.

This insulation sleeve is intended for use on indoor HVAC system piping where thermal efficiency and vapor control are required. The flat blanket format installs directly over pipe sections without the additional cutting and fitting steps associated with duct wrap. Pre-cut 5-foot sections reduce labor time and material waste on both in-shop fabrication and jobsite installations. The reinforced metalized vapor barrier jacket resists moisture infiltration, helping maintain consistent R-value over the service life of the insulation. This product meets UL 181B standards and is suitable for installation by HVAC technicians and mechanical insulation contractors.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified HVAC technician or mechanical insulation contractor in accordance with applicable mechanical codes. Shut down the HVAC system and allow piping to reach ambient temperature before applying insulation. The flat sleeve wraps around the pipe section and is secured per UL 181B installation requirements; use the included starter cap to terminate open ends cleanly. Inspect all seams and vapor barrier joints for gaps before returning the system to service.
