For your application on furnace pipes we would recommend either Nansulate® Transcluent PT (surfaces up to 256F) or Nansulate® Translucent High Heat (surfaces up to 400F). Both can be used over pipes instead of fiberglass insulation and will retain their insulating ability over time. Because Nansulate® is a thin film coating it is not infiltrated by dust, moisture, or other contaminates, which degrade fiberglass and other insulators.
