Can the Thick Heat Shield Roll of Glass Fabric with Double-Sided PYROBLANKET 96 Silicone Coating be safely used as a permanent barrier against molten metal splashes in steelworks?

Yes — Thick Heat Shield Roll of Glass Fabric with Double-Sided PYROBLANKET 96 Silicone Coating can be used as a permanent barrier against molten metal splashes in steelworks, with important caveats. Why it is suitable: - The fabric’s surface prevents molten metal and glass splashes from sticking, reducing adhesion and burn-through risk. - High continuous-use rating (−54°C to +260°C) and exceptional short-term resistance (up to +1650°C) provide protection from extreme thermal excursions typical of splash events. - Thick silicone coating and 3260 g/m² mass deliver superior abrasion, water/oil resistance and mechanical durability required in harsh industrial settings. Caveats and recommendations: - “Permanent” installation must consider cumulative exposure frequency, splash energy, and mechanical wear; heavy, repeated direct impingement by large-volume splashes or prolonged radiant heat may eventually degrade coatings. - Use as part of a certified system: mount correctly, protect edges and fastenings, and inspect regularly for coating breakdown, pinholes, or delamination. - For critical safety zones, combine with redundant barriers or rigid shields and follow site-specific risk assessments, applicable standards, and local safety regulations. - Ensure maintenance and replacement intervals are established based on actual operating conditions and inspection results. Conclusion: Thick Heat Shield Roll of Glass Fabric with Double-Sided PYROBLANKET 96 Silicone Coating is a highly effective permanent barrier against molten metal splashes when specified, installed and maintained according to risk assessment and industry standards.
