Mbmbkr Insulation DistributorCONTRACTORS NATIONAL Association WILLARD A. SELLE, Inc. Insulation Contractors & Distributors 215 POPLAR ST. EL PASO, TEXAS 79901 TELEPHONE 542-1877 June 18, 1969 Mr. Carl Glaser, Engineering Dept American Smelting & Refining Co. P.0. Box 1111 El Paso, Texas 79946 Re: Insulation for Two 55 - Foot Stacks Dear Mr. Glaser: In accordance with our telephone conversation of June 16, 1969, we are sending you some insulation manufacturer's product data sheets. These sheets outline the properties of both calcium silicate and glass fiber insulating material. Either of these products would be excenent for the stacks you mentioned. Both, of course, would have to be weatherproofed. We will be happy to provide you with any additional information we have. Please call on us if we may be of service to you. Yours very truly WILLARD A. SELLE, INC. BC/p Enc. Bob Crockett ASARCO ELP 0006091 J-M THERMOBESTOS pipe and block insulation DESCRIPTION: A molded, high tempera ture pipe and block insulation, J-M Thermobestos is composed of hydrous calcium silicate bonded with asbestos fibers. It is a completely inorganic insulating material which, because of its light weight, low thermal conductivity, great structural strength and insolubility in water, is ideal for high tempera ture piping and equipment. AVAILABLE FORMS: Thermobestos is furnished in both sectional pipe insulation and block form. The pipe insulation comes in a complete selection of sizes up to 24" x 4" half sections. 25" through 33" pipe sizes are available in quad seg ments. Scored blocks 12"x 36" in thicknesses from 1 Vi" to 3 'A"are available for application on curved surfaces representing a diameter range from 34" through 180". Scored blocks are furnished with three equally spaced scores. Beveled blocks are also available in widths of 6", 12", and 18", by 36" lengths, in a full range of thicknesses. ADVANTAGES Exceptional Strength Similar in chemistry and composition to a very fine concrete. Thermobestos will withstand unusual oper ating abuse without appreciable damage. Extreme Lightness Thermobestos is as light as many insulating materials possessing a fraction of its strength and durability. Chemically Stable 1009c inorganic, will neither burn nor rot. Not Damaged by Water Can be soaked in water without damage. After drying, conductivity will be as good as new. | USES: Especially recommended for use in the power generation and process industries on in door and outdoor piping and equipment operating at temperatures to 1200F, Thermobestos is light enough for easy handling and fast application. Re peated wettings have no permanent effect on it which makes it ideal for installations subjected to weather, or for insulating underground steam lines. Because it will not bum or carry flame, it may also be advantageously specified for use in the presence of inflammable gases and liquids. Easy Application Thermobestos is purposely made in large blocks and half-sections to facilitate handling and reduce num ber of joints. Low Conductivity Thermobestos offers the lowest k factor of all insula tions in general use throughout the power generation and process industries. WILLARD A. SELLE.
