Tonzon vapor-retarding insulation foil - 1.25m x 8m

Item number: 8717931410250 View all from Tonzon > View more: Central heating boilers > Vapour-retarding Insulation Foil from Tonzon This vapour-retarding insulation foil from Tonzon is very strong and can be used in many ways. Because the foil is highly vapour-retarding, it protects other insulation materials that need to remain dry from moisture. By enclosing some air on one or both sides of the foil, you further increase the insulation value. The foil blocks up to 95% of heat radiation. Vapour-retarding Good vapour retardation is very important to prevent water vapour from penetrating a structure and leading to unwanted condensation on the cold side when cooling down. A layer of vapour-retarding insulation foil has a moisture resistance (µd) of no less than 180 meters. This makes this foil a good alternative to the foils normally used as standard in construction. Insulating effect The insulating effect arises because the foil counteracts almost all heat flow through radiation. It can be used to make warm objects radiate less heat or even to reflect heat. The foil is extremely suitable for application in pre-walls, where it is combined with an air cavity. Here it can improve the insulation value of the material by up to 40% in some cases, especially with thinner insulation. In addition, there are countless applications for this foil, including: radiator foil, bath insulation, and sun protection. Fastening The foil has a very high tensile strength, but can tear. When fastening mechanically (staples, plugs, etc.), it is therefore advised to reinforce the foil at the point of fastening, for example with a special foil strengthener. In addition, the foil is extremely thin and light. For this reason, the foil can also be fastened by clamping it, for example with magnets. Other fastening options include glue or tape. The advantage of these methods is that they ensure an airtight connection.
