Transite 1000
Transite 1000 is engineered to handle higher temperatures, loads and electrical conditions with less shrinkage and degradation compared to previous non-asbestos formulas.
Transite 1000 is a high-density, non-asbestos board used in wide variety of applications where a combination of high strength, thermal stability, electrical insulation or machinability is required.
Transite 1000 is hydraulically pressed into monolithic boards from refractory cement and selected non-asbestos reinforcement and silica. The board is steam-cured, oven dried, and sanded to a standard 24 grit finish.
