fiber glass duct liner
(3 DESCRIPTION: Micro-Bar is a resilient, semi-rigid, blanket type insulation, made of strong, very fine, inorganic glass fibers bonded by a ther mosetting resin. Micro-Bar combines two separate densities. On one side is a thin, tough, heavy den sity material to check air erosion and shop handling. Underneath is a thicker, lighter density body for greater sound absorption and thermal insulation.
AVAILABLE FORMS: Micro-Bar is coated with a special neoprene meet ing NBFU-90A to prevent the possibility of fiber erosion.
f7] USES: Recommended for air conditioning and heating ducts at velocities up to 5000 FPM (although it has been tested in the laboratory for velocities above 8000 FPM without noticeable change).
HADVANTAGES
DurableResists Damage
Micro-Bar's "dual-density" with a NBFU-90A coating provides a tough surface to withstand the punishing force of high velocity air at 5000 fpm. It also resists accidental damage during fabrication.
Protects Leading Edges
Reduces Heat Transfer
The enormous number of minute air pockets created by the very fine glass fibers make Micro-Bar highly resistant to the passage of heat.
Absorbs Sound
Micro-Bar traps and absorbs undesirable sound in. the millions of dead air spaces formed by the random pattern of the extremely fine glass fibers. See opposite page for sound absorption coefficients.
Low Fire Hazard Rating
Micro-Bar meets standard No. 90A of the National Board of Fire Underwriters as recommended by Na tional Fire Protection Association.
Lightweight
Micro-Bar adds little to the over-all weight of the duct. Also saves in transportation, storage and fabrication.
Extremely Resilient
Resists breakdown and sagging from vibration, cor ners and edges do not crumble.
When formed over the edge of the insulation, MicroBar's tough surface prevents rushing air from getting into or under the insulation, thus resisting tearing or lifting. With Micro-Bar, it is not necessary to provide a "Z" strip or metal nosing.
Easy to Handle and Apply
