HALYARD NOISE INSULATION FACINGS AND ACCESSORIES

Halyard facings are chosen with different purposes in mind

Maritex
An immensely tough fibreglass cloth with a sealed metallised skin so it cannot absorb oil. It won’t tear or fray. It looks heavy duty, and it is fire zero rated. Maritex is simply the best facing in the Halyard range. Maritex is fire zero rated to BS 476 parts 6 and 7.

Sealglass
A tough off-white glass cloth, sealed against oil. The cloth is extremely tough and will not tear. The sealant will burn off in a fire. The material meets the ISO 9094 fire requirements of the EU Recreational Craft Directive.

Re-inforced silver polyester
This facing meets the requirements of the Recreational Craft Directive. It provides a seal to keep oil out. You can pierce it, but it has a re-inforcing layer behind it. It will burn, but once laminated in place it meets the ISO 9094 fire requirements of the EU Recreational Craft Directive. In a fire the facing will burn, but not the foam behind it.

Damper layer
This heavy damper layer is the same as the one used in the middle of each material. It can be used beneath carpets and as a centre core to double thickness bulkheads – or on the bulkhead before the noise insulation is applied.

Hatch tape
Results can be spoilt by a poorly fitting hatch, or a panel which rests straight on a timber frame. As with a car door, a sealing strip should be applied as a cushion, and Halyard Hatch Tape is designed for this purpose. Made from self-adhesive neoprene foam for maximum oil resistance, and available 19mm (3/4") or 25mm (1") widths.

Joining tapes
Joining tapes are available for use with each face. Tapes can be difficult in damp machinery spaces with high temperature variations. Full details in price list.
