PLATEN INSULATION

Shaping Composite Innovation.

Platen Insulation

Haysites family of mold and platen insulation products are specially engineered berglass reinforced thermoset polyester composites which offer superior energy efciency, temperature control, and durability for high temperature mold and platen thermal applications. When compared to other available insulating materials, Haysites Thermalate and Heatmeiser provide proven, cost effective products for the plastic or rubber molder.

Haysite Thermalate composites offer a number of specic advantages over other insulation materials: Asbestos Free. Cost Effective: Increased efciency allows for short payback. Low Thermal Conductivity/Energy Efcient: Saves and allows more precise temperature control. High Heat Resistance: Designed to operate at temperatures up to 550. High Compressive Strength: Will not take a compressive set, causing mold alignment problems, when subject to extremely high molding pressures. Tough and Durable: Does not crack or break easily during mold setup or tear down. More durable than mica or asbestos materials. Resists Oils and Fluids: Other more absorbent insulators, such as concrete asbestos, can deteriorate or alter their thermal conductivity. No Maintenance.
