Unveiling Our New Partnership with S Riley Fabrications: Introducing SRF Fire Sleeves
At IPS Flow Systems, we’ve always prioritised bringing you top-quality products that combine safety, efficiency, and reliability.

Fire sleeves are essential for protecting hoses, cables, and pipes in environments where high temperatures and potential fire hazards exist. With SRF Fire Sleeves, you get a premium solution tailored to withstand even the harshest conditions.
Why Choose SRF Fire Sleeves?
The SRF Fire Sleeves are built with exceptional craftsmanship, using ‘E’ glass fibre yarn coated with high-grade silicone elastomer rubber, ensuring maximum durability and flexibility. These sleeves form a protective SiO₂ layer when exposed to flame, providing superior fire resistance.
Our new range includes two distinct types to suit varying needs:
- Standard SRF Fire Sleeve
This version is ideal for continuous use in environments with sustained high temperatures:
- Continuous operating temperature: 260°C (500°F)
- Molten metal splash resistance: Withstands temperatures up to 1200°C
- Resistant to: Oils, hydraulic fluids, fuels, acids, and alkalis
- Purpose: Ideal for safeguarding hoses, pipes, and cables in manufacturing, processing plants, and heavy industrial environments
- Bonus feature: Provides personnel protection against burns from hot surfaces and helps reduce energy loss by retaining heat within the pipework
- Hook & Loop SRF Fire Sleeve
The Hook & Loop version is a retrofit solution designed for hassle-free installation without disconnecting existing equipment:
- Easy to apply: No need to remove or shut down systems during installation
- Reinforced stitching: Made with fire-retardant hook-and-loop fasteners and stitched with glass thread for added durability
- Edge protection: Features a glass-locked edge to prevent fraying
