Product Overview
Silicone Fire Sleeve is a high performance fire resistant hose sleeve engineered for thermal protection in extreme industrial environments. It is widely used to protect hydraulic hoses, fuel lines, wire harnesses and cables from radiant heat, direct flame exposure and molten metal splash.
The sleeve is manufactured using tightly braided fiberglass yarn coated with specially formulated silicone rubber, providing excellent flexibility, insulation performance and long-term durability.
Compared with conventional hose protection sleeves, silicone fire sleeves offer superior resistance to high temperatures, oil contamination, abrasion and harsh operating conditions commonly found in steel mills, foundries, glass plants and heavy machinery systems.
