Climaflex Pipe Insulation 76mm x 9mm

The biggest bore listed here is Climaflex Pipe Insulation 76mm x 9mm, for 76mm pipe with a 9mm foam wall. Expect 2m tubes of closed cell polyethylene that handle heating and water pipework.

76mm pipe sits in boiler houses, plant rooms and main distribution runs in large buildings. With that much surface area, bare pipe gives off a lot of heat. Even a 9mm wall makes a real difference and tidies up the run. It also keeps the overall size manageable where pipes run in banks. Measure the outside of the pipe first, as 76mm covers both large copper and some steel.

Fitting Climaflex pipe insulation

Big tube is easy to handle. Slide it on during install, or slit it along its length and wrap it round pipe that is already fixed. Push every joint tight. Gluing or taping the seams gives the neatest and longest lasting result. Cut angled joints at bends and cover the short pieces between valves.

Common Questions

Is 76mm the biggest Climaflex here?

Yes, 76mm is the largest bore in this listing, at the top of the 10mm to 76mm span. It goes on large copper and some steel in boiler houses and plant rooms.

Does a 9mm wall make a difference on 76mm pipe?

Yes. A 76mm pipe has a large surface, so even a slim wall saves a fair amount of heat and keeps the room cooler. Thicker lagging would save more if the space allows.

How do I lag a 76mm pipe already on brackets?

Slit the tube end to end, open it over the pipe and tape the seam. Cut the foam back neatly round each bracket and tape the edges, or use insulated supports.
