Therefore, the product is ideal insulation material for Flame Resistant Wire and Cable. When fire breaks out, it is vital that certain electrical insulation continue to function, enabling people to leave the premises safely.

Due to its properties above, Fire - Proof Mica Tapes are ideal insulating material for fire resistant command cables, signal & control cables, high temperature cables, application wiring. The products are widely used ON OFF - shore platforms and ships,& in railway, mines & road tunnels, steel works, petrochemical plants, subways, nuclear power plants.
