RPR Insul-Mate® Fittings and Covers
Speedline® 25/50 Smoke-Safe™ PVC


Proto PVC Fitting Covers

Description - The Proto® Fitting Cover System consists of one-piece, pre-molded, high-impact PVC fitting covers with fiber glass inserts and accessories. Accessories are elbows, tee/valves, end caps, mechanical line couplings, specialty fittings, jacketing, tacks, and PVC tape.
Application - The Proto Fitting Cover System is used to insulate mechanical piping systems at fitting locations. It provides PVC jacketing for straight run piping and gives a quality appearance and excellent durability.
Features and Benefits:
Fire and Smoke Safety
- Proto PVC Fittings do not exceed 25 Flame Spread, 50 Smoke Developed.
- Roll jacketing is available in 25/50-rated or indoor/outdoor grade.
- The 25/50 products meet most fire and safety requirements of federal state and local building codes.
UV Resistant
- Use indoors or outdoors.
- Paint outdoor fittings to enhance UV and colorfast protection.
Excellent Appearance
- Bright high-gloss white coloring adds a distinct quality appearance to the system.
Easy to Clean
- The smooth high-gloss surface cleans easily with soap and water.
- Ideal system for food and drug facilities.
Low-Cost Installation
- Significant cost savings vs. conventional cement, molded sections and mitered sections.
Fast and Easy
- At fitting locations, the fiber glass insert is wrapped around the pipe fitting, the Proto PVC Fitting is applied over the insert and then tacked or taped.
Wide Temperature Range
- For mechanical piping systems operating to 500°F (260°C)
Long Lasting
- Can be used more than once on retrofit projects, general maintenance.
Excellent Thermal Value
- Low thermal conductivity value of 0.26 at 75°F (0.037 W/m2•°C) mean temperature.
- Better thermal efficiency than conventional cement fittings.
Resistant to Fungi and Bacteria
- Does not promote growth of fungi or bacteria.
