Basalt Tapes

From molten magma to premium textile constructions, basalt fibers have achieved unparalleled quality and performance that's unmatched by any other fiber in its category. With a unique blend of distinctive appearance, strength, and durability, derived solely from the chemical composition of the earth's basalt rock, these fibers offer exceptional attributes.

Basalt tapes exhibit significantly greater strength compared to fiberglass and have a higher melt temperature. Tailored to suit your specific application, VR1200 is crafted from continuous filament volcanic rock fiber (basalt) to provide thermal protection up to 1200°F. When traditional glass tapes are unsuitable for the application temperature, basalt emerges as an excellent alternative.
