FLEXAhightemp Conduit
High-temperature protective conduit for direct cable protection in hot industrial environments
View ProductsHigh-Temperature Protective Conduits
High-temperature conduit and fire-protection products for heat shielding, thermal insulation, and flame resistance.
High-temperature protective products are used where cable, wire, and conduit assemblies require protection from continuous heat, flame exposure, or elevated operating temperatures.
This product group includes high-temperature conduit for direct cable protection, along with fireblocker tape and wrap products for thermal shielding, flame-spread resistance, and fire-protection applications.
Flexa high-temperature protective products are available directly from IBIS, a key North American source for specialized conduit solutions.
High-Temperature Product Families
High-temperature protective products are differentiated by whether the application requires conduit-based protection, fireblocker tape, or fireblocker wrap.

How to Choose the Right High-Temperature Protective Product
Start with the protection method required: direct conduit protection, securing and finishing, or broader fireblocker coverage.
Conduit vs. Tape vs. Wrap
Use FLEXAhightemp Conduit where the application requires direct high-temperature conduit protection around wires or cables.
Use Fireblocker Tape where the application needs a fastening and finishing material for wraps, added protection at conduit entry and exit points, or localized thermal and flame blocking.
Use Fireblocker Wrap where the application requires broader protective coverage around cable bundles, wiring harnesses, exposed assemblies, or areas needing larger wrap-around fire protection.
Direct Protection vs. Outer Protection
Choose the conduit where the product itself serves as the primary protective path for the cable.
Choose the wrap where protection is being added over an existing cable, conduit, or bundled assembly.
Choose the tape where the application needs securing, binding, fastening, end finishing, or localized added protection.
Heat Resistance vs. Fire Protection
Use this product group where the application involves continuous elevated temperatures, thermal shielding, flame-spread reduction, or added fire protection in exposed areas.
Applications for High-Temperature Protective Conduits
High-temperature protective products are commonly used where standard conduit or protection materials are not sufficient for the heat exposure or fire-protection requirement.
Typical applications include:
- hot industrial machinery
- power plants and refineries
- furnace and oven-adjacent wiring
- high-temperature cable routing
- flame-spread protection around cable bundles
- thermal shielding for exposed wire and conduit assemblies
- wiring harness protection in fire-prone industrial areas
- conduit entry and exit points requiring added localized protection
Frequently Asked Questions About High-Temperature Protective Conduits
When should I use a high-temperature protective conduit instead of a tape or wrap?
Use a high-temperature protective conduit where direct conduit-based protection is required around the cable or wiring itself. Use wrap where broader outer thermal or fire protection is being applied over an assembly. Use tape where securing, fastening, end finishing, or localized added protection is needed.
What is the difference between fireblocker tape and fireblocker wrap?
Fireblocker wrap is primarily used to provide broader heat and flame protection around cable bundles, harnesses, conduits, or exposed assemblies. Fireblocker tape is primarily used to bind, secure, and fasten the wrap after it has been applied. It can also be used at the ends of FLEXAhightemp conduits to provide added protection where wires or cables enter or exit the conduit.
Where are high-temperature protective products commonly used?
They are commonly used in hot industrial environments, power plants, refineries, and other areas where cable protection must withstand elevated temperatures or where added flame protection is required.
When is fire protection more important than temperature resistance alone?
Fire protection becomes more important where the application requires added flame-spread resistance, protection in fire-prone areas, or outer protection over exposed cable bundles, harnesses, or assemblies.
