Thermalate and Heatmeiser mold and platen insulation products are made from sheets of specially formulated fiberglass-reinforced thermoset polyester composites. Designed to operate at temperatures up to 550°F, the insulation has high compressive strength that prevents mold alignment problems at extremely high molding pressures. It is tough and more durable than mica or asbestos, will not easily crack or break during mold setup or teardown, and requires no maintenance. In addition, the insulation does not absorb oils and fluids that can cause deterioration or changes in thermal conductivity. The sheets are stocked in standard sizes of 36 in. by 72 in. and 48 in. by 96 in. in thicknesses of 0.25 in. to 2 in.
