The solution

The MTB thermal blanket

Removable, waterproof and reusable thermal insulation, custom-made for each hot component.


How it works

The blanket is built in layers: a hot face rated for the component temperature, an insulating core and a waterproof cold face. The assembly is sewn and fastened onto the equipment with springs and velcro.

The result is a barrier that keeps the outer surface around 55 °C even with the component above 375 °C, and that can be removed and refitted in minutes for inspection.

The layers that make up the MTB blanket

The four layers

From the mesh against the hot component to the outer face the operator touches. Pick a number to see each layer.

Hot face · layer 1

Mechanical protection

The metal mesh that sits against the component. It gives the blanket its shape and stands up to abrasion and machine vibration.

PremiumAISI 304 stainless mesh · up to 0.28 mm StandardAISI 304 stainless mesh · up to 0.28 mm

Hot face · layer 2

Inner fabric

The textile barrier that takes the direct heat from the exhaust, turbo or pipework.

PremiumSilica fabric · up to 1,000 °C StandardCeramic fibre fabric · up to 1,200 °C

Core · layer 3

Insulation

The core that holds the heat back. The thickness of this layer is what sets the outer face temperature.

PremiumNeedlemat blanket · up to 650 °C · up to 100 mm StandardCeramic fibre blanket · up to 1,260 °C · up to 100 mm

Cold face · layer 4

Cold face

The outer skin, impermeable to oil, fuel, water and hydraulic fluid. This is the face the operator touches.

PremiumSpecial siliconised fibre · up to 260 °C StandardSiliconised glass fibre · up to 260 °C
