K-Flex K-Rock Foiled Mineral Wool Pipe Insulation - 1m
Description
K-Flex K-Rock Foiled 1m - Mineral Wool Pipe Insulation
Enhance your pipework insulation with the K-Flex K-Rock Foiled 1m, exclusively available in the UK from PipeLagging.com. This mineral wool pipe section, with a uniform thickness of 20-120 mm and suitable for pipe diameters of 6-300 mm, provides exceptional thermal and acoustic insulation. Certified to EN 14303:2009+A1:2013, it is engineered for building equipment and industrial installations, including boilers, ducts, ovens, and HVAC systems, across a temperature range of -50°C to +600°C.
Technical Construction
The K-Flex K-Rock Foiled 1m comprises mineral wool with an aluminium foil (ALU) facing, delivering a vapour barrier with a water permeability rating of WS01. It achieves a thermal conductivity of λ(0°C) ≤ 0.034 W/(m·K), rising to λ(50°C) ≤ 0.038 W/(m·K), as per the formula λ(ϑm) = (34 + 0.081·ϑm + 0.00043·ϑm²) / 1000 W/(m·K). Its Euroclass A1L fire rating (BS EN 13501-1) ensures non-combustibility, while trace chloride ions (CL10, ≤10 ppm) minimise corrosion risk.

Installation Guidelines
Per the K-Flex Application Manual, the K-Rock Foiled 1m is slit lengthwise for application on straight pipes up to 300 mm OD. Open the longitudinal cut, fit it around the pipe, and secure the ALU foil overlap with K-Flex self-adhesive tape or aluminium bands (required above 40°C or for inaccessible installations). For elbows and T-fittings, segment cuts are recommended, sealed with K-Flex PVC AT 070 tape. The processing temperature should be +10°C to +35°C to avoid tensile stress. Not suitable for outdoor use without additional cladding.
Applications
This product is specified for:
- Domestic heating and plumbing (BS 5422 compliant).
- Industrial process pipework (e.g., boilers, ovens).
- HVAC and refrigeration systems.
- Acoustic insulation of commercial pipe runs.
