2. Trace heating - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trace_heating

   Electric heat tracing, heat tape or surface heating, is a system used to maintain or raise the temperature of pipes and vessels using heat tracing cables. Trace heating takes the form of an electrical heating element run in physical contact along the length of a pipe.

3. Self-amalgamating tape - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Self-amalgamating_tape

   Self-amalgamating tape is a non-tacky silicone rubber tape that when stretched and wrapped around cables, electrical joints, hoses, and pipes combines or unites itself into a strong, seamless, rubbery, waterproof, and electrically insulating layer. [1] [2] Unlike many

4. Electrical tape - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_tape

   Electrical tape (or insulating tape) is a type of pressure-sensitive tape used to insulate electrical wires and other materials that conduct electricity. It can be made of many plastics but PVC (polyvinyl chloride, "vinyl") is the most popular, as it stretches well and gives effective and long-lasting insulation.

5. Thermal insulation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_insulation

   Thermal insulation is the reduction of heat transfer (i.e., the transfer of thermal energy between objects of differing temperature) between objects in thermal contact or in range of radiative influence. [1] Thermal insulation can be achieved with specially engineered methods or processes, as well as with suitable object shapes and materials.

6. Pipe insulation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pipe_insulation

   The application of thermal pipe insulation introduces thermal resistance and reduces the heat flow. Thicknesses of thermal pipe insulation used for saving energy vary, but as a general rule, pipes operating at more-extreme temperatures exhibit a greater heat flow and larger thicknesses are applied due to the greater potential savings. [3]

7. Insulated pipe - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Insulated_pipe

   Insulated pipes are commonly used for transport of hot water from district heating plants to district heating networks and for distribution of hot water inside district heating networks. Thermal insulation material usually used is polyurethane foam or similar, with a thermal conductivity λ 50 of about 0.024–0.033 W/(m·K).
