E-Glass Fibre Braided Ropes 700 °C

E-Glass Fibre Braided Ropes, up to 700 °C

E-glass fibre is particularly attractive for its excellent electrical insulation properties and its resistance to high temperatures. E-glass fibre is rot-proof, remains dimensionally stable, even under intense variations of humidity and temperature and can withstand the main chemical agents.

In the industry, they are used for applications involving peak temperatures up to 700 °C and operating temperatures up to 550 °C. Because they are respirable, E-glass filaments of a diameter under 3 μm can build up in the respiratory system. Filaments over 9 μm can cause skin irritations. To prevent these health-related risks, Final Advanced Materials make their E-glass braided ropes using filaments between 6 and 9 μm.

Final Advanced Materials offers braided ropes in a round or square section in standard diameters ranging from 4 to 60 mm. Different treated braided ropes are also available: with a silicone, rubber or PTFE coating, graphite impregnated, coupled with aramid or a stainless-steel sleeve. These treatments improve their mechanical and sealing properties and reduce pollution from airborne fibres.
