Transite HT

This non-asbestos, monolithic fiber cement industrial board is used in environments up to 600°F where high strength is the primary concern. This fiber cement board is used in the foundry industry for flask liners, core, drying and carry plates, and induction furnace casings. Electrical applications include busbar supports, aluminum pot insulation and electrode arm insulators. Transite HT is also used as load bearing gasketing, spacers, supports and machined parts for OEM applications.
