In plumbing, a jacket is a protective covering or insulation around a pipe or vessel. It is typically made of a material that can withstand high temperatures and is designed to maintain a consistent temperature within the pipe or vessel. Jackets are commonly used in heating and cooling systems, where they help to prevent heat loss or gain and maintain a consistent temperature. They can also be used in chemical processing applications, where they protect the contents of the pipe or vessel from external environmental conditions.
