Climaflex Pipe Insulation 60mm x 9mm

Steel mains around 60mm across take Climaflex Pipe Insulation 60mm x 9mm, which wraps them in a 9mm foam wall. Tubes are 2m of closed cell polyethylene, used on heating and water.

You will not find 60mm copper, so this tube is mostly for steel pipe. That turns up in older boiler houses, larger heating mains and commercial water systems. Measure across the pipe before ordering. A loose fit leaves a gap, and a tight fit will not close. The 9mm wall gives light cover and keeps the run slim.

• For pipe of 60mm outside diameter
• 9mm wall thickness
• 2m long
• Closed cell polyethylene foam
• Heating or water lines

Fitting Climaflex pipe insulation on large pipe

On a fixed pipe, run a sharp blade along the tube end to end. Spread it, fit it over the pipe and press the cut shut. Butt each length tight. Glue or tape on the seams keeps them shut, which matters on pipe that warms and cools every day. At bends, cut matching angles on each piece so they meet cleanly.

Look through our pipes, hoses and insulation section for other sizes.

Common Questions

Which pipe does Climaflex 60mm x 9mm fit?

There is no 60mm copper, so this tube is for steel pipe measuring about 60mm outside. Check with a tape across the pipe, as a poor fit leaves gaps.

Is 9mm enough on a 60mm steel main?

It gives light cover in heated plant rooms and keeps a bank of pipes slim. For pipe in cold areas, a thicker wall would do more.

How do I join Climaflex on long 60mm runs?

Butt each length hard against the last and glue or tape the joint. On pipe that heats and cools daily, taped joints are less likely to creep open.
