For New Construction: Spintex Batts and Blankets
Johns-Manville Spintex Batts and Blankets are made of spun rock wool.
Instead of short, coarse fibers, this J-M spinning process produces long, fine
fibers which make better, more firmly felted batts and blankets that are stronger, lighter in weight, more resil ient, and have greater uniformity
throughout. They are rotproof, fireproof, and assure the homeowner of maximum year-round comfort, protection and
winter fuel savings. SPINTEX BATTS are strong and sturdy.
They will not break down under rough handling but hold their factory-made
shape and uniform thickness . . . will not crumble or fray when cut to fit irregular
spaces. Each batt has a vapor seal back ing to protect against the passage of abnormal humidity and a tacking flange
for ease of installation. Spintex Batts are furnished Ful-Thik
and Semi-Thik. Ful-Thik Batts have an average thickness of 3)4 in.; Semi-Thik, an average thickness of 2 in. Both types are available in sixes 15 x 24, 15 x 48, 19 x 24, 19 x 48, 23 x 24 and 23 x
48 inches. SPINTEX BLANKETS, made of the
same firmly-felted long fiber spun rock wool, are fully enclosed in a permeable wrapping with an approved vapor seal
backing and a tacking flange. Thick Blankets, approximately 3 in.
in thickness, are furnished in sizes 15 in. x 48 in. and 23 in. x 48 in.; Medium Blankets, approximately 2 in. thick, in sizes 15 in. x 64 ft, 23 in. x 64 ft, 15 in. x
8 ft and 23 in. x 8 ft; and Service
Blankets, approximately 1)4 in. thick, in sizes 15 in. x 8 ft and 23 in. x 8 ft.
Airacoustic Sheets for lining
Air-Conditioning Ducts
J-M Airacoustic Sheets provide a firesafe, sound-absorbing material de veloped for use in ventilating ducts.
Since they absorb a large percentage of the sound that strikes them, they pro vide a highly effective means of reducing
undesirable duct noises. Composed of rock wool and a suitable binder, Aira coustic Sheets are available in size 24 in. x 36 in., and in thicknesses of )4 in and 1 in.
Spintex Duct Insulations
Spintex Duct Insulations are incom
bustible . . . provide high insulating effi ciency and long service life. Their low
installed cost is the result of JohnsManville's long experience in developing
proper methods of application. They are furnished as blankets and semi-rigid
boards. The densities range from 2 to over 6 lb per cu ft, providing flexible and stiff materials for round or rectangular
scientifically correct insulations and ducts.
