TempShield™ Single Bubble/Double Foil reflective insulation has one layer of 5/32" barrier bubble film laminated between two layers of foil (Nylon Reinforced).
WRAP: hot water heaters · pipes · metal and commercial buildings · stud walls · roofing systems · basements · crawl spaces.
USE as a vapor retardant and when reflectivity and R-factors are required.
CAN be stapled, glued or taped if necessary, depending on the installation involved.

Typical Thermal Values for TempShield™ Single Bubble Products:
Thermal resistance measurements have been made according to the most recent test revisions using a calibrated hot box operated in accordance with ASTM C 976. Analysis of results was done in accordance in ASTM C 1224. The R-values observed are highly dependent on method of installation.
How Radiant Heat Transfers Through Roofs
TempShield™ is used as insulation against radiant heat transfer and can be used to its greatest advantage in instances where radiation is the predominant means of heat transfer. It is the bright aluminum surface of all TempShield™ products that gives it its insulating properties. This happens in two ways:
TempShield™ is an excellent reflector of all long wave radiant heat that strikes it - reflecting up to 97% of all radiant heat.
TempShield™ will reradiate only 3% of heat in which it comes in close physical contact, compared with the approximate 90% reradiation of ordinary building materials, at the same temperature.
