Atco Rubber Products 010-R8_7X5FT Pipe Insulation Sleeve R8

Product Description

The ATCO RUBBER PRODUCTS 010-R8_7X5FT is a fiberglass pipe insulation sleeve rated R8, designed for insulating round ductwork and pipe runs in indoor HVAC systems. The sleeve combines a thick fiberglass insulation blanket core with a reinforced metalized polyester vapor barrier jacket, providing both thermal resistance and moisture protection in a single assembly. Each section measures 7 inches in diameter and 5 feet in length, arriving flat and ready to wrap without field cutting. Rated for temperatures from -20 degrees F to 250 degrees F, this sleeve meets UL 181B requirements. Licensed HVAC technicians and insulation mechanics install this product on new construction and retrofit mechanical systems.

This sleeve is suited for indoor HVAC pipe and duct applications where a pre-cut, flat insulation blanket reduces installation time compared to bulk duct wrap. The 5-foot sections eliminate in-shop or jobsite measuring and cutting, keeping labor costs down on production installs. A starter cap is included to complete the insulated assembly at open ends. The flat profile allows the sleeve to conform evenly around round pipe or duct sections, sealing out moisture and limiting thermal loss across mechanical runs in residential and light commercial environments.

Key Features

• R8 thermal rating for high-performance insulation of indoor pipe and duct runs
• Fiberglass insulation blanket core provides durable, lightweight thermal resistance
• Reinforced metalized polyester vapor barrier jacket resists moisture intrusion
• Pre-cut 5-foot flat sections eliminate jobsite cutting and reduce installation labor
• Starter cap included for complete end treatment of insulated pipe sections
• Meets UL 181B applicable standard for HVAC duct insulation systems

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation sleeve for 7-inch round pipe and duct in indoor HVAC systems where flat blanket-style fiberglass insulation with a vapor barrier jacket is required.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by licensed HVAC technicians or insulation mechanics following applicable mechanical and energy codes. Power down and lock out the HVAC system before working on connected ductwork or pipe runs. Wrap the sleeve snugly around the pipe or duct section, secure seams with UL 181B-rated tape or staples as required by local code, and fit the included starter cap over open ends. Do not compress the fiberglass blanket during installation, as compression reduces the effective R-value of the assembly.
