The insulation is asbestos on a wire mesh.

I repaired the heater box straps with some metal banding used for packs of
bricks.  It's about the right thickness, and lots long, but needs a bit of
width trimming to finish off, and zinc-rich spray coating.  Re-use the
original end (plus new split pin if needed).
