Installing asbestos flooring involves less disturbance to the asbestos-containing product than does removal of asbestos felt roofing. Consequently the flooring installer probably has less exposure to airborne asbestos fiber than does the roofing remover, and therefore less risk of developing cancer.However, if a similar comparison is made between the flooring remover and the roofing remover, the greater risk falls to the flooring remover.

You are likely thinking of the High-temperature reusable surface insulation (HRSI) tiles. These are part of the larger thermal protection system (TPS) which also includes the Low-temperature Reusable Surface Insulation (LRSI) tiles, Toughened unipiece fibrous insulation (TUFI) tiles as well as the Felt reusable surface insulation (FRSI) blankets and Flexible Insulation Blankets (FIB).
sound deadening, insulation, furniture feet felt is soft and filled with air so it doesn't scratch surfaces and limits heat/cold transfer and reduces sound transmission
In addition to clothing, wool has been used for blankets, horse rugs, saddle cloths, carpeting, felt, wool insulation (also see links) and upholstery. Wool felt covers piano hammers, and it is used to absorb odors and noise in heavy machinery and stereo speakers. Ancient Greeks lined their helmets with felt, and Roman legionnaires used breastplates made of wool felt. Wool has also been traditionally used to cover cloth diapers.
