Armacell is pleased to announce the acceptance of 21 Component Foam products to the General Motors (GM) approved source list (MATSPC). In an effort to keep our products up-to-date with current automotive specification standards, a two-year endeavor was undertaken to conduct extensive internal and independent laboratory testing.

Read how AP Armaflex® Pre-fabricated Fitting Covers helped one insulation contractor company save time on the jobsite at a large mixed use redevelopment project in Washington DC. Old Dominion Insulation installed over 250 Armaflex pre-fabricated fitting covers for Victaulic grooved couplings, elbows and tees, saving 300 to 400 hours of jobsite labor.

The new sizes answer the demand for larger tubes eliminating the need to piece sheet or roll material around large 8” and 10” piping. Mechanical insulation contractors will save time with easier-to-install tubes which curve naturally to fit snugly over large pipes and glue together faster than flat insulation. Added savings will come from reducing the scrap material that comes from cutting sheets down to size for large pipes.
