batt; pre-cut segment (mineral wool)


Explanation:
Mineral wool insulation is sometimes 'glasswool' (fiberglass) but can be other materials (Wiki does a decent job). Here is a site (consumer.org) differentiating 'blanket/roll' glasswool products from 'pre-cut segments' insulation products. the stålregel is steel stud (for wall studs) and joist (for floors and ceilings).

Always use breathing cover and gloves when working with this stuff!

Example sentence(s):
  • Batts are simply blankets pre-cut into 4 ft. or 8 ft. lengths (http://www.insulationdoctor.com/blanket-insulation.php)
  • and even in the uk (http://guide.rockwool.co.uk/products/building-insulation/cavity.aspx)
