Significance and Use4.1 This specification is used to specify material by physical property requirements that address the prerequisites in
27、 Sections6 to 10. The designer of an insulation system, after determining the system requirements, shall use this specification to specify theappropriate aluminum jacketing.5. Classification5.1 Classification of aluminum jacketing is based on three factors:5.1.1 Outer surface treatment and emittance
28、 ():5.1.1.1 Type I = Bare surface, = 0.1,5.1.1.2 Type II = Painted with pigmented paint, = 0.8,5.1.1.3 Type III = Painted with unpigmented paint, = 0.5, and5.1.1.4 Type IV = Plastic film coated surface, = 0.85.5.1.1.5 Paint systems for Types II and III must be factory applied and baked on.5.1.1.6 Pl
29、astic film for Type IV must be factory applied and heat laminated to the surface.5.1.2 Alloy and Temper per Specification B209:5.1.2.1 Grade 1 = Alloy 3105 or 3003, half hard temper (H14,)(H14 or H24)5.1.2.2 Grade 2 = Alloy 3105 or 3003, quarter hard temper (H12 - lock forming quality),5.1.2.3 Grade

31、raft per section 3.2.10,5.1.3.3 Class D = painted, and5.1.3.4 Class E = no moisture retarder.NOTE 2Class B was removed in 2011 because it was not used or produced. The remaining Classes were not renumbered to avoid conflicts withengineering specifications that reference the remaining Classes.6. Mate
32、rials and Manufacture6.1 Aluminum jacketing materials are composed of a single material or a lamination of several components. The materials aresupplied in the form of rolls or sheets or preformed to fit the surface to which they are to be applied. The materials are appliedin the field or as a facto
33、ry-applied composite with the insulation.6.2 The primary material shall be aluminum and shall have a finish that is smooth, 316 in. corrugated, or stucco embossed. Thedimensions of corrugations (pitch and depth) must be agreed to by manufacturer and purchaser to achieve interchangeability,constant r
34、igidity, and appearance.6.3 When agreed upon by purchaser and seller, aluminum sheets used as pipe insulation jacketing (see 8.2) shall have a safetyedge or a 38 to 12 in. safety hem along one entire width edge of the sheet. Aluminum jacketing with a safety edge or safety hemmust still meet the leng
35、th dimensions specified in 8.2.1. A safety hem shall not be specified when the finish is 316 in. corrugated.6.4 In most cases, the inner surface of aluminum jacketing material is coated or covered with a moisture resistant film to retardpossible galvanic or chemical corrosion, or both, of the jacket
36、ing.6.5 For highly corrosive ambient conditions or to increase emittance, the purchaser shall specify that the outer surface of thealuminum be coated with a pigmented or unpigmented paint or with a plastic film.6.6 The aluminum used in this jacketing, with the exception of box rib, shall be manufact
37、ured from Specification , alloys 3003,3105, or 1100 with tempers of H14 or H24 (half hard), H12 (quarter hard), or dead soft Grades 1, 2, or 3 per 5.1.2.6.7 Aluminum jacketing shall be specified by the thickness of the aluminum layer which shall be in the range from 0.016 to0.050 in.NOTE 3The thickn
38、ess values mentioned in 6.6, 6.8, and 6.7 are nominal thickness. The tolerances shown in Table 1 apply to these listed nominalvalues.6.8 The measured thickness of metal jacketing will be influenced by any forming or rolling such as that described in 10.5. Allrequirements for and discussion of jacket
39、ing thickness and thickness tolerance in this document including Table 2 and Table 1apply to the base metal before any forming or rolling and do not include any coatings or films that are applied to the surface suchas the moisture barriers described in 5.1.3.C1729 14a36.9 Box rib aluminum jacketing
40、pieces shall be manufactured from Specification B209, alloys 3003 or 3105 (Grade 1), alloys3004 or Alclad 3004 (Grades 4 and 5), or alloy 5052 (Grade 6) per Section 5.1.2 and shall be 0.032 in., 0.040 in., 0.048 in., or0.050 in. thick.NOTE 4Typical box rib widths available are 45-58 in., 38.5 in., a
41、nd 27.5 in. Typical lengths available are 8, 10, and 12 ft. The pattern of groovesand ridges typically repeats on 4 in. centers and the height of each rib is typically 1 in.6.10 Deep corrugated aluminum jacketing pieces shall be 0.016 in., 0 .020 in., 0.024 in., 0.032 in., 0.040 in., or 0.048 in. th
42、ick.6.10.1 Typical deep corrugated width is 33 in. and typical length is 6 to 12 ft. Two nominal repeating patterns are common 1-14 in. on centers with a 14 in. height and a 2-12 in. on centers with a 58 in. height. For specific repeating pattern distances, themanufacturer shall be consulted.7. Phys
43、ical Properties7.1 Required physical properties are shown in Table 2 and Table 3.NOTE 5See section 10.9 for further information regarding Table 2.7.2 All aluminum jacketing shall demonstrate a flame spread of 25 or less and smoke developed of 50 or less when testing theouter side (the side opposite
44、that contacting the insulation) in accordance with 11.2.NOTE 6Aluminum jacketing is not typically considered a fire resistant material. If a higher level of fire resistance or protection is required, alternativejacketing materials usually based on steel, should be considered.7.3 Unless otherwise spe
45、cified by the manufacturer, the emittance of the jacketing shall be considered to be:7.3.1 Type I = 0.1 which is typical for a normally oxidized aluminum jacket in service,7.3.2 Type II = 0.8 which is typical for a pigmented paint,7.3.3 Type III = 0.5 which is typical of an unpigmented paint, and7.3
46、.4 Type IV = 0.85 which is typical of a plastic film surface.NOTE 7Testing of the emittance of Type I has yielded initial unoxidized values ranging from 0.03 to 0.05 and oxidized “in-service” values rangingfrom 0.1 to 0.31 (2, 3, 4, 5, 6). The use of an emittance of 0.1 is recommended here as being
47、the most conservative value. 7.3 addresses the situationwhere a user of this standard wishes to consider a different emittance value.7.4 Permissible thickness tolerances vary with nominal thickness and are shown in Table 1. Thickness is measured per 11.3.7.5 Requirements for permissible pinhole dete
48、ctions in the moisture retarder when tested per Test Method C1785 are shown inTable 3.7.6 The moisture retarder shall have no visual defect that will affect performance and shall be free of laminated separations,holes, rips, tears, scratches, dents, non-uniform edges, or creases.7.7 Requirements for
49、 water vapor transmission rate (WVTR) of the moisture retarders tested per 11.6 are shown in Table 3.Testing the WVTR of moisture retarders is not possible after they are applied to the aluminum jacketing so this testing shall bedone on the moisture retarders prior to application.TABLE 1 Permissible Thickness TolerancesNominal thickness inin.Thickness tolerance in in. forUp to 39.4 in. wide jacketingand deep corrugated sheet48 in. wide jacketingand box rib sheetover 0.010 through 0.016 0.0010 0.0015over 0.016 through 0.025
