Ceramic Fibre Blanket Box - 7200 x 610 x 25mm (B96)

Protect your walls, structures, and surroundings from extreme heat with this premium B96 Ceramic Fibre Blanket - a professional-grade thermal insulation solution trusted across residential, commercial, and industrial applications. Each box contains a full 7200 x 610 x 25mm roll, giving you generous coverage for large installations or multiple projects from a single purchase. Lightweight at approximately 10.5kg and flexible enough to cut with standard scissors or a utility knife, this blanket is designed to be handled and installed without specialist tools or professional assistance.

Engineered to withstand continuous service temperatures of up to 1000 C, this ceramic fibre blanket provides a level of heat resistance that conventional insulation materials simply cannot match. With an ultra-low thermal conductivity of approximately 0.06 W/m K at 200 C, heat transfer through the blanket is dramatically reduced - keeping the surfaces and structures behind it significantly cooler even under sustained high-temperature conditions. The B96 density rating guarantees a consistent, tightly packed fibre structure that maintains its insulating performance under compression and repeated heat cycling, ensuring long-term reliability in demanding environments.

One of the most important applications for this blanket is fireplace installation. Building guidelines and fireplace manufacturer specifications require adequate thermal separation between a fireplace unit and the surrounding wall structure. Installing this ceramic fibre blanket between the back and sides of your fireplace and the adjacent wall protects plaster, brick, and structural materials from heat damage, cracking, and long-term thermal degradation. It is a critical layer of protection for any wood-burning or closed combustion fireplace installation, and is considerably more effective than relying on air gaps alone. Whether you are installing a new fireplace or retrofitting an existing one, this blanket provides the wall protection your installation requires.

Beyond fireplace use, this blanket is equally at home in a wide range of high-heat environments. It is widely used to line the interiors of wood-fired pizza ovens and custom braai builds, improving heat retention while protecting the outer structure from radiant damage. In workshops and fabrication environments it serves as a welding curtain, forge liner, furnace seal, and kiln insulation material. It is also used for wrapping high-temperature pipes and ducting in HVAC and industrial plant rooms, as well as for automotive heat shielding on exhaust systems and engine bay components.

Unlike brick or dense refractory materials, ceramic fibre absorbs very little heat itself - meaning it begins protecting surrounding structures almost immediately rather than slowly accumulating dangerous temperatures. It is chemically stable, resistant to thermal shock, and does not melt, drip, or emit toxic fumes when exposed to direct flame. The blanket's natural white colour gives it a clean, professional appearance even in visible installations, and its flexibility allows it to conform to irregular gaps and curved surfaces without cracking or losing integrity. It can be removed and reinstalled without any loss of insulating performance, making it a durable and cost-effective long-term solution.

Whether you are a homeowner protecting your walls during a fireplace installation, a builder or contractor working on a residential or commercial project, a braai enthusiast lining a custom outdoor build, or a fabricator working in a high-heat environment - this ceramic fibre blanket delivers the thermal protection your application demands.
