OVERVIEW

Protect Your Induction Investment with Miller Quality

The Miller 261479 Induction Blanket Sleeve is a critical accessory for professionals utilizing induction heating for welding preheat and post-weld heat treatment (PWHT). Designed specifically for use on 48-inch diameter pipes, this sleeve serves as a robust protective barrier between the workpiece and your valuable induction blanket. In the demanding environment of industrial welding and pipeline construction, equipment is constantly subjected to rough surfaces, abrasion, and extreme heat. This sleeve is engineered to mitigate those risks, ensuring your primary heating equipment remains operational for longer.

Constructed from high-quality Kevlar®, the sleeve offers exceptional resistance to cuts, tears, and high temperatures. Measuring 162 inches in length and 5.5 inches in width, it provides a precise fit for narrow induction blanket configurations used on large-bore piping. By acting as a sacrificial layer, the sleeve takes the brunt of the wear and tear that occurs during setup and removal. Replacing a sleeve is significantly more cost-effective than replacing an entire induction blanket, making this product a smart investment for maintaining low operational costs.

Installation is straightforward, allowing operators to quickly secure the sleeve over the blanket before application. This efficiency is vital in field operations where downtime must be minimized. Whether you are working in a fabrication shop or on a remote pipeline project, the Miller 261479 ensures that your induction heating process remains consistent and reliable. Trust in genuine Miller OEM parts to deliver the performance and durability required for heavy-duty industrial applications.

Key Benefits:

  • Cost Savings: Prevents damage to expensive induction blankets.
  • Durability: Kevlar material withstands harsh industrial environments.
  • Perfect Fit: Tailored dimensions for 48-inch pipe applications.

FAQ

The primary purpose is to protect the induction heating blanket from abrasion, cuts, and wear caused by contact with the pipe surface, thereby extending the blanket's lifespan.

The sleeve is constructed from Kevlar®, which provides excellent heat resistance and durability against physical wear.

This specific sleeve (261479) is designed to fit 48-inch diameter pipes.

The sleeve measures 162 inches in length and 5.5 inches in width.

Yes, the sleeve is durable and reusable, but it is designed as a sacrificial layer and should be replaced when it shows signs of significant wear to ensure the blanket remains protected.

While it is physically possible to wrap it around smaller pipes, the 162-inch length is specifically calculated for 48-inch pipes. Excess length would need to be managed carefully to avoid interference with the induction process.

No, this product is only the protective sleeve. The induction blanket is sold separately.

Yes, this is a genuine Miller OEM part, ensuring compatibility and quality for your Miller induction heating systems.
