Graphite Insulation Felt for High Temperature Furnace
Product Overview
Graphite insulation felt is a lightweight, high-performance thermal insulation material used in vacuum and inert gas furnaces. Made from high purity graphite fibers, it provides excellent thermal insulation at temperatures up to 3000C while maintaining low thermal conductivity.
Our graphite felt insulation is available in both soft and rigid forms, custom cut to fit your furnace chamber dimensions. It is widely used in vacuum furnaces, crystal growth furnaces, and semiconductor processing equipment for energy-efficient thermal management.

FAQ
Q: What is the typical thickness of furnace insulation?
A: Typical furnace wall insulation uses 50-100mm of graphite felt, with multiple layers for optimal performance.
Q: Can graphite felt be used in air?
A: Graphite felt oxidizes in air above 400C. For air applications, we recommend SiC-coated graphite felt or other refractory materials.
Q: How long does graphite felt last in a vacuum furnace?
A: With proper operation and maintenance, graphite felt insulation can last 3-5 years before needing replacement.
