Quality Garter Installed Edit

Description and applications: The Original Snake is spiral wrapped around the pipe or folded down the length of the pipe, valve, or vessel that you are insulating. It comes in different widths to accommodate the different pipe, valve, fitting or vessel size. The Original Insulation Snake® does not have straps pre-attached, but we recommend Snake Straps to be used so that the Insulation Snake® can be removed and reused.  You can also use this product by folding it around the pipe and down the length of the pipe.

Typical applications: 

Spiral wrapped over pipe, flanges and valves, either separately, or all together

  • Use our Snake Straps for ease of installation (Use of tape, wire or zip ties may result in reduced R-Value damage during removal)
