For uses such as thermocouples, missile ignition wires, offshore drilling rigs, space suits, firefighting equipment, furnace door packing/insulation.

Ceramic Fibers maintain their flexibility and strength at temperatures up to 2372ºF (1300ºC), outperforming the useful limits of other high temperature textiles.

While Fiberglass (E Glass and S-glass) offer excellence insulation for certain markets that Gladding supports, Ceramic offers a combination of low thermal conductivity, thermal shock resistance and electrical resistance at high temperatures and is excellent for fire protection, seals, and other heat resistant situations.
