Incombustible Microlite

Incombustible Hullboard

Product Short Description
For use in marine applications where design parameters prohibit the use of a rigid product (service temp: 400°F).

Product Details

Incombustible Hullboard

Product Long Description

Johns Manville Incombustible Microlite® insulation provides excellent acoustical and thermal performance for use in a variety of marine applications. It is the recommended solution when design parameters prohibit the use of a rigid product. Incombustible Microlite is manufactured using our flame-attenuated process, delivering a product that is resilient and lightweight . In addition, it is US Coast Guard approved and complies with US Navy and Nuclear Regulatory Commission product standards.

Incombustible Hullboard

Features

High Thermal Performance. With a low “k” factor of 0.23 Btu•in/(hr•ft2•°F) at 75°F mean temperature (0.033 W/m•°C at 24°C), Incombustible Hullboard is highly effective in reducing heat transfer.

Lower Fuel Contribution. When compared to standard hullboard not approved as noncombustible, heat-potential test results show that the total number of heat units (BTUs per lb.) released by Incombustible Hullboard are 50% less. These test results indicate the potential for a substantially greater degree of safety at sea. 

Specification Compliance. Johns Manville Incombustible Hullboard marine insulation complies with all current, applicable standards. 

Fast Installation. The resilient, semi-rigid insulating board is easy to cut and fit and can be fabricated with minimal time and effort. The standard sizes available help save cutting and trimming time and reduce waste. Kerfing “vee grooves” for beam insulation can be handled cleanly on cutting tables by using either hand tools or mechanical devices.
