Textiles

Ropes and yarns used as lagging on pipes jointing and packing materials and as heat/fire-resistant boiler, oven and flue sealing. Caulking in brickwork. Plaited asbestos tubing in electric cable. Asbestos content approaching 100%, unless combined with other fibres.

 

Crocidolite and chrysotile were widely used due to length and flexibility of fibres. Other types of asbestos have occasionally been used in the past. Chrysotile alone since at least 1970. Weaving reduces fibre release from products but abrading or cutting the will release fibres, likely to degrade if exposed, becoming more friable with age. 

 

Cloth

Thermal insulation and lagging  including fire-resisting blankets, mattresses, and protective curtains, gloves, aprons, overalls etc; curtains, gloves, etc, were sometimes aluminised to reflect heat. Asbestos content approaching 100%.

 

All types of asbestos have been used in the past. Since the mid 1960s the vast majority has been chrysotile. Fibres may be released if material is abraded.
