I was talking to one of our subcontractor installers the other day about a source on Micore 300. He said that he no longer uses it because of the density and fragility. He has been using this product for years, apparently its structural, and has a 1.2 r value per 1/2". Mabey someone can confirm that with the specs listed below. Have any of you used this product?
MariniteTM I panels can be used in construction and refurbishment of ovens, dryers and other insulated housings for the retention of control or heat. It, also, can be used in areas of fire protection, fire training, and as lightweight insulation panels
MariniteTM I combines structural strength with high thermal insulating values. It is incombustible, highly damage resistant, non-corroding, and extremely water resistant. Mariniteâ I panels also provide fire safety, uniform temperature control, and require minimal maintenance.
