ROCKBOARD® RCK
MINERAL WOOL

ISO 9001 : 2000 Certified
 

ROCKBOARD® products are mineral wool fiber insulations made from basalt rock and slag. This combination results in a non-combustible product with a melting point of approximately 2150°F (1177°C), which gives it excellent fire resistance properties. ROCKBOARD® mineral wool is a water repellent yet vapor permeable material.
 

The RCK™ series of products are non-combustible mineral wool insulation boards that are lightweight, water repellent and designed to allow for various application requirements. A major application for the RCK series is pipe and tank wrap, where temperature demands as well as moisture resistance are critical. Low moisture absorption, non-corrosive, chemically inert, CFC and HCFC free product and process.
