Jacket Construction Details
1) Outer Fabric Layer
The outer layer protects the jacket from dust, mechanical wear, light moisture splash and site exposure. Fabric is selected according to temperature and working environment.
- Silicone coated fiberglass for flexibility and heat resistance
- PU coated fiberglass for selected industrial environments
- Aluminum laminated fiberglass for radiant heat reflection
- Ceramic fiber cloth for high-temperature zones
2) Insulation Core
The insulation core reduces heat loss and helps lower the outer surface temperature. Thickness and material type are selected according to operating temperature and heat-loss target.
Glass Wool
Used for moderate-temperature thermal insulation applications.
Rock Wool
Commonly used for steam lines, manifolds, valves and industrial hot surfaces.
Ceramic Wool / Ceramic Paper
Used for high-temperature exhaust, turbine and generator areas.
Common thickness options
3) Inner Hot-Face Layer
The inner layer faces the hot equipment and protects the insulation core. It is selected according to direct heat exposure, equipment surface temperature and required service life.
4) Closure & Fastening System
Fastening design is important because insulation jackets must be easy to remove and reinstall during maintenance.
- Velcro / Hook & Loop where suitable
- Belt system for strong holding
- Stainless steel springs and hooks for high-temperature applications
- Hooks / lacing system for tight and reusable fitting

Surface Temperature Reduction & Energy Saving
How Surface Temperature Reduces
The insulation core reduces heat transfer from the hot equipment surface to the outer cover. This helps reduce touch temperature and improves safety around industrial equipment.
How Energy Saving Happens
When heat loss is reduced, less energy is required to maintain process temperature. This improves efficiency and helps reduce operating cost in steam, exhaust and process heating systems.
Quick Heat-Loss Estimator
Formula used: Q ≈ k × A × (Th − Ta) / t
Estimated heat loss: 0.20 kW ≈ 204 W
This is a simplified estimate. Real heat loss also depends on convection, radiation, airflow, insulation fit and equipment geometry.
Export & Custom Manufacturing
MSEW manufactures custom insulation jackets based on equipment size, surface temperature, maintenance access and site condition. We supply projects in Pakistan and also export internationally with suitable packing and documentation as required.
