Advanced vacuum insulation delivers high-performance thermal insulation solutions for aerospace applications up to 1000°C

Aircraft insulation requires durable, rugged, low maintenance materials that deliver unparalleled thermal performance. Concept Group LLC has been supplying high-quality, high-precision components to the aerospace industry for over 50 years.

Aerospace manufacturers find thermal solutions in our cutting-edge Insulon® Technology. With ultra-low wall thickness and high-temperature capabilities up to 1000°C, our high-performance vacuum insulation delivers unique solutions that the aerospace industry can count on.

Heat guns with Insulon safety nozzle guard accessories

Heat Gun Safety Guards for Aerospace Manufacturing

Aerospace manufacturers rely on heat guns to produce complex wire harness assemblies. These hot air tools are very powerful, and can pose serious workplace hazards. Insulon Safety Guards provide thermal protection for heat guns and can help to:

  • Reduce the risk of burn injury
  • In the event of a burn, reduce the severity of the burn
Auxiliary Power Unit (APU) on back of aircraft

Insulation for Auxiliary Power Units (APUs)

APU exhausts can benefit from improved thermal containment. Our high-performance insulation provides an alternative to textiles commonly used on APU exhausts. Our solutions can help to:

  • Insulate the exhaust muffler
  • Protect surrounding components from APU exhaust temperatures

Insulation for Fuel Lines and Fluid Transport

Thermal protection can improve performance for aircraft fluid lines including fuel, oil, lubricants, coolants, hydraulics, and air conditioning systems. Our ultra-thin insulation is available in both rigid and flexible tubing and can help to:

  • Guard against exposure to extreme temperatures
  • Prevent temperature fluctuations
Thermal protection for sensors and instruments

Thermal Protection for Instruments and Sensors

Combining our glass-to-metal hermetic seals with Insulon® Technology can provide optimal thermal protection for components and instruments including sensors and actuators. Insulon® can help to:

  • Thermally insulate electrical conduits
  • Reduce heat loss from batteries
Insulation for Bleed Air Systems

Insulation for Bleed Air Systems

Bleed air systems can function more efficiently by reducing heat transfer along the pathways taken by compressed air and gases. Our ultra-thin, space-saving components can help to:

  • Maintain lower skin temperature
  • Minimize temperature drop within bleed air systems
