K-FLEX IN CLAD SYSTEM Application
For on-site insulations it is possible to order the various sections based on technical drawings for linear tubes, curves, “T” couplings, flanges and valves. Each section is produced using a high-pressure water machine making them easy to install on site.

The preformed IN CLAD sheets for pipes with diameters greater than 168 mm are supplied with a 5 cm elastomeric overlap at both ends and a 5 cm IN CLAD longitudinal over lap to faci l i tat e installation.The end joints should be covered with the special IN CLAD band and fixed down with marine sealant.

The “T” pieces are made in three pieces which should be directly applied onto the elastomeric sections (two pieces). First install the main section of the “T” connection followed by the coupling sections.

Fringes are cut into the overlaps of the outer and inner edges of the IN CLAD disks to help sealing onto the elastomeric insulation.

To cover the elbow, the appropriate number of “fish” IN CLAD sections are created and laid over either K-FLEX ST or ECO elastomeric insulation.

To facilitate installation of the IN CLAD covering, fringed are cut into the overlap of the sections which will then be sealed with adhesive onto the K-FLEX ST or ECO elastomeric insulation.

Reductions are pre-cut in three sections. An overlap of 5 cms with a fringes edge is added to ensure a tight seal over the elastomeric insulation, ST or ECO.
