Diesel Tech Blankets
Firwin Diesel Tech Exhaust Insulation Blankets are custom manufactured using layered fiberglass materials to provide exceptional heat and noise control at temperatures to 2000°F (1100°C)
Firwin Diesel Tech blankets are ideal for use on equipment that has to be periodically overhauled or maintained.
Diesel Tech exhaust blankets will withstand intense vibration and is the solution for block type insulation requiring replacement.
Applications
- POWER GENERATION - MARINE TRANSPORT
- FISHING VESSELS - FIRE PUMPS
- FORESTRY & MINING EQUIPMENTS
On such equipment as
- EXHAUST MANIFOLDS - EXHAUST PIPE
- EXPANSION JOINTS - FLEXIBLE CONNECTIONS
- TURBOCHARGERS - TURBINE CASES
- EXHAUST GAS BOILERS
Advantages
- ASBESTOS FREE
- REMOVABLE/REUSABLE
- VIBRATION RESISTANT
- PERSONNEL PROTECTION
Blankets can lower touch temperatures to acceptable safety levels.
Reduce uncomfortable ambient temperatures.
Allow routine maintenance without shutdown.
Fire Protection
Reduces hazards of flammable fluid ignition, resulting from leaks and spills contacting surface temperatures of running equipment.
Noise Control
On application, blankets can be constructed to effect optimum thermal and/or acoustical requirements.

Cover Purifiers
FIRWIN CORP manufactures custom purifier wraps designed exactly to each purifier. This ensures a close, tight fit. We select the materials specifically to suit a particular application and operating temperature. Our lacing anchors do not penetrate the entire blanket, thus the lacing anchors conduct no heat away from the purifier, and importantly do not heat up and become a burn hazard.
These blankets have been successfully used on trucks, special machinery and busses. Through our experience we know that our blankets:
- HELP MAINTAIN PURIFIER OPERATING TEMPERATURE
- PREVENT EXCESSIVE HEAT FROM DAMAGING SURROUNDING CONTROLS
- SPEED UP HEATING TO OPERATING TEMPERATURE
- PREVENT ACCIDENTAL BURNS ON EXPOSED PURIFIERS
- REDUCE ENGINE COMPARTMENT TEMPERATURES
- HAVE AN OIL RESISTANT SILICONE IMPREGNATED FIBERGLASS OUTER COVER
All our materials are carefully selected to maintain the best quality. These materials are NON-COMBUSTIBLE and CONTAIN NO ASBESTOS. The specification on the insulation blankets are rigorous, and they comply with Lloyds of London, DNV, and the U.S. and Canadian Coast Guard specifications.
