Fiberglass Pipe Insulation covering is intended as a thermal insulation for both hot and cold service piping from -20°F to 1000°F. The pipe insulation is molded from heavy density resin bonded glass fibers that come in 3 foot long hinged sections. The fiberglass is wrapped with white All-Service Jacketing with a self-sealing lap (ASJ/SSL) for a quick and secure installation. Each 3 foot section of commercial hot and cold pipe insulation comes with a butt-strip tape (matching the white ASJ jacketing) that is used to connect two sections of fiberglass pipe insulation covering together.
Fiberglass Pipe Wrap Uses:
- Domestic Hot & Cold Water Pipes
- Hot Water Heating Pipes
- High Temperature Pipes
- Dual Temperature Pipes
- Steam Pipes (Low to High Pressure)
- Condensate Lines
- Refrigerated / Chilled Liquid Pipes
Choosing The Correct Size: There are two sizes you need to choose when ordering fiberglass pipe insulation, the "Pipe Size" and the "Insulation Thickness". The insulation thickness is the wall thickness of the fiberglass which varies from 1/2" up to 3" thick. For help selecting a fiberglass pipe insulation thickness see our Fiberglass Thickness Guide To determine which Pipe Size to order please see the link below (Note: Pipe Size is NOT the same as the pipe diameter):

Installation Instructions:
To install hot and cold pipe covering, simply open the hinged part of the commercial pipe insulation and place the opening over the pipe. The fiberglass piping insulation covering will self-close around the pipe. Once the fiberglass is fitted snug around the pipe, peel the release paper from the self-sealing lap and press the ASJ/SSL jacket closed from the middle towards the edges of the pipe insulation. Make sure to rub the jacket closed to ensure a secure seal. Seal two sections together with a piece of butt strip tape making sure to rub the tape to create a secure seal. Additional ASJ MAX Tape is recommended for large projects and projects that require multiple cuts of the insulation. Use of PVC Fitting Covers for elbows, tees, unions and other pipe fittings should be installed after installing fiberglass pipe insulation.

White ASJ Jacketing: A large majority of common size fiberglass pipe wrap insulation we ship is the new ASJ Max / HP ULTRA pipe insulation while some larger sizes and (3 x 1/2, 3-1/8 x 1/2, 4 x 1/2, and 4-1/8 x 1/2) will be Johns Manville Micro-Loc HP. The new ASJ Max / HP ULTRA jacketing has a poly top-coat over the ASJ paper which makes it easier to wipe clean and slightly water resistant (cannot be left exposed outdoors).
NOTE: Each unit is 3 linear feet of pipe covering. For example, if you need 9 linear feet, you only need to order 3 units.

So easy to install and effective
I went all in, buying everything I thought I needed for my project hoping that it would work out well. Any yeah, it has. This stuff is easy to cut to length and fits perfectly. There have been a few spots where pipe is too close to a wall where I've had to shave off insulation on the inside of the tube but it's has been relatively pain free. Great product!

Fast easy install, professional look
I've never insulated pipe before and was impressed with how fast and easy the install was. Its hard to screw up with this. I would recommend buying the widest tape if you plan on sealing the joints as the jacketing can be up to a 1/2" shorter than the insulation.
I used 1" insulation on my steam heating system and from feeling the pipes while the furnace is on, can tell that there is a lot less heat loss compared to the asbestos insulation that I had removed. -

Quality and Value plus Outstanding Service
The insulating rolls that I have purchased are just great . The sizes and thickness options make for perfect fit resulting in perfect fit with little or no heat loss. Easy to cut if needed and provides a neat tidy and clean look.
A must have product for anyone with a steam heating system -
Very easy to use and high quality
Fits all three pipe sizes I used snuggly. The split design with sealing tape made installation very easy and professional looking. Insulation is a tight design so if you need to cut lengths it is easy and does not compress or come apart.

Great Insulation for Steam Radiator Pipes
I just purchased an old brownstone with a steam radiator system. The furnace tech advised me to insulate the main radiator pipes in the cellar. After looking at inferior options, I found this tubular fiberglass insulation at buyinsulationproductstore.com. It was easy to calculate the insulation size I needed for my 2" cast iron pipes. The product arrived quickly and was easy to install. I ordered additional tape, but probably only need the tape that came with the 13 rolls I ordered. Now, I just need to install insulated elbows and tee's which I just ordered. I recommend this product highly.

Pipe Insulation Fast & Easy
I had old asbestos insulation removed from my steam pipes. Chose to use 1-inch thick fiberglass. The jackets provided by BIP made the job go very quickly and easily. They also provided tape segments for the joints. The fiberglass was well made, easily cut or hollowed out to fit around pipe connections. They have several videos on line that show the proper way to install the jackets, angles and elbows also the sizing charts took out the guess work. Reasonably priced compared to the national retail stores and showed up at my door within 3 days of placing the order. Definitely would recommend to anyone needing to insulate pipes. Would recommend picking up an extra roll of tape.

Well made product that will save us lots of money
I purchased this pipe insulation for the long runs in my basement from the boiler to our radiators. First, each piece was very easy to install, Just pull up the tape, spread it open, wrap it around the pipe and seal the tape. Second, they look great. By the way, I used an old bread knife to cut pieces to length as needed.
I was especially appreciative of pieces of tape that came with to seal up the seams between pieces. Made it look like one continuous piece of insulation. Looks very professional.
Finally, and most important, the insulation works great. I used a temperature sensor to compare pipe I did not insulate with the pipe I did. The naked pipe was 135 to 145 degrees. The insulation was 75-80 degrees. That is an amazing improvement and I expect a nice cost saving.
Thanks to BuyInsulationProducts.com for the great solution and service.
