How to check fit and access
Check the overlap and end fit after refitting and verify that specified joints and supports stay accessible.
See inspection and acceptance checks →Steam & hot water
Removable short pipe spool insulation blankets
Cover the spool while maintaining access to specified end connections.
Short exposed sections between valves, flanges or permanent pipe insulation.
Product views and construction details
Compare alternate views and see how the jacket opens, fits or fastens.
Design and specifications
The straight split opens along the pipe so the sleeve can be removed without dismantling the joint.
- Shape and construction
- Cylindrical sleeve with both joint ends accessible
- Facing, core and hot face
- Coated glass-fibre facing and flexible glass-fibre or mineral-fibre core for hot service.
- Nominal core thickness
- 25 / 40 / 50 mm nominal options; match the adjacent system or agree a transition.
- Installation and closure
- Longitudinal overlap with rated snaps, tabs or straps accessible along the run.
- Dimensions to confirm
- Pipe OD, clear spool length, support locations, end projection and adjacent insulation OD.
These are options for a custom quotation. Confirm the assembled materials, dimensions, service limits and finish in writing.
Review the construction detail
inspect lining, end collars and the space needed for bolt access.

Operating temperature and expected result
Compare heat loss per unit length at actual pipe OD and temperature; assess joint transitions separately.
Agree the conditions, measurement points and target for the proposed cover before quoting. Record the complete assembly’s approved service limits separately from the target outside-face temperature.

Calculated outside-face temperature for Shannon LT450SS at 21.1 °C ambient, flat-surface model. The manufacturer lists a maximum service temperature of 232 °C for this model. The columns show its nominal insulation thicknesses in millimeters and the manufacturer’s approximate inch equivalents.
| Operating temperature | 25 mm (1 in) | 40 mm (1½ in) | 50 mm (2 in) |
|---|---|---|---|
| 121 °C | 37.9 °C | 33.3 °C | 30.8 °C |
| 177 °C | 47.3 °C | 40.3 °C | 36.3 °C |
| 232 °C | 57.2 °C | 47.8 °C | 42.3 °C |
These figures describe the cited manufacturer’s model. Shape, airflow, compression, gaps and closures affect the installed result. A lower outside-face temperature still needs to be checked against your site’s contact and inspection requirements.
