Boats & Barges
Boats & Barges - Refractory and High-Temperature Insulation Materials for Marine Heating Systems
Thermal protection and maintenance materials for steam vessels, stoves, and onboard boiler systems
Vitcas offers a specialised selection of refractory and insulation products designed for marine applications, including steam boats, canal barges, yachts, and motor vessels. These materials ensure the safe operation, repair, and maintenance of onboard boilers and heating appliances.
Boiler repair and insulation for marine vessels
Marine boilers must operate safely and reliably over long voyages, especially on steam-powered boats and ships. To carry out emergency or routine repairs, it is advisable to keep a mouldable refractory compound or castable refractory material on board. These materials are designed to withstand the high thermal stresses typical of marine boiler systems and can be applied in-situ as needed.
Additionally, insulation fabrics such as aluminium foil-laminated E-glass cloth provide effective thermal protection for exhausts, flues, or boiler housings. These materials reduce surface temperatures and improve energy efficiency in confined onboard spaces.
Stove maintenance on canal barges and yachts
On canal barges and smaller craft, solid fuel or diesel stoves are commonly installed for heating. To maintain safe and effective stove operation, routine servicing and replacement of worn components is essential.
Vitcas provides high-temperature rope seals, adhesives, and stove rope kits for sealing stove doors and flue joints, as well as stove glass cleaner for maintaining visibility and safety.
For vessels with timber construction, such as traditional wooden barges, it is particularly important to install vermiculite fire boards behind and around the stove. These boards provide a critical fire barrier between the heat source and combustible surfaces, reducing the risk of ignition and ensuring compliance with safety regulations.
