Abstract

An insulation assembly consisting of a blanket of insulation folded into a plurality of "S" folds to form an insulation bundle having length, width and depth with a rod having first and second end portions and passing longitudinally through the insulation bundle along its length. The rod has an axial opening at one end and the remaining end portion has a narrowed diameter which is less than the diameter of the axial opening. A bracket is attached to the rod and extends below the insulation bundle so that it can be attached to a surface. With the above construction, a series of bundles can be secured to the surface by securing the first bundle to the surface, then attaching additional bundles by inserting the narrowed end of the rod into the axial opening of the preceding bundle and then attaching the bracket for each bundle to the surface to be insulated.
