Product Long Description
Ultrolon® aluminum jacketing is comprised of Kynar 500 based polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) coated aluminum. Ultrolon is provided with a coating that exhibits as close as possible the characteristics of a PVF film, durability and excellent corrosion resistance. Standard color is gray. Standard metal thickness is .016. Other colors and gauges are available, but may require minimum quantities and extended lead times. Ultrolon is available in standard roll form, prefabricated, and 3/16", 1-1/4" and 2-1/2" deep corrugated sheets.

Features

Weather Resistance and Color Retention - 3PVDF coatings exhibit excellent resistance to ultraviolet degradation and color retention.

Chemical Resistance - PVDF coatings resist most common acids, alkalis, salts, oils, and other substances which erode other surfaces and finishes. Edge protection must be provided to insure complete chemical resistance.

Abrasion Resistance - Ultrolon jacketing provides exceptional resistance to abrasion. Chipping, cracking and peeling are virtually non-existent.

Polyfilm Moisture Retarder - Polyfilm consists of a 3 mil thickness of a co- extrusion of polyethylene and DuPont's Surlyn* which is heat laminated to the metal jacketing. Due to its superior performance characteristics, it replaces the old standard 1 mil and 3 mil polykraft moisture retarders.

Also Available without Polyfilm upon request

Calcium Silicate Pipe and Board Insulation Resource Library
Johns Manville's Thermo-1200® calcium silicate has added corrosion inhibitors, become water-resistant, and is now offered in a curved segment configuration for large diameter (30” – 126”) equipment

Cross-Flo Jacketing Resource Library

Water isn’t welcome inside an insulation system, so get it out – and fast – with the help of Johns Manville’s Cross-Flo Jacketing. This new product is perfect for industrial and mechanical insulation systems, helping to expel unwanted water.

Corrosion Under Insulation (CUI) Resource Library
Thermal insulation is an integral part of the industrial complex. However, even the best designed and installed systems sometimes become compromised, resulting in the presence of water at the pipe surface and the potential for Corrosion under Insulation (CUI). Learn more about CUI and how JM provides the solution. 

Insulation Solutions for Cryogenic and LNG Systems
Cryogenic and below-ambient pipe and tank temperatures can drop to -297°F, making a well-designed insulation system critical to ensure safe and efficient operations in an Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) facility. At Johns Manville, we’re here to assist you with all the details you need to properly design, specify and install your cryogenic and LNG application.

Case Studies

Berne Processing Complex
The first of three plants for the new $150 million BlueRacer Midstream LLC gas processing facility in Lewisville, Ohio called for high-temperature insulation solutions that would meet the project specifications and aggressive timeframe for delivery.

Newark Energy Center

The construction of the Newark Energy Center gas-fired power plant in Newark, New Jersey called for the latest GE gas turbine technology to supply electricity to more than 700,000 homes. 

CUI Protection at a Refinery
The service crew at a Washington state location put Cross-Flo®jacketing to use on a maintenance project, after first testing theproduct themselves. They’re now hopeful it can be used regularly
