High Temperature Aramid Fibre Threads 350 °C

Aramid Fibre Sewing Thread, up to 350 °C 

Aramid fibre was developped in the 60s. This material consists of yellow filaments of about ten microns in diameter, assembled into threads.

Aramid fibre threads are known for their excellent thermal and mechanical properties. Moreover, these products are self-extinguishing, non-fusible as well as resistant to abrasion and have high breaking strength. They are therfore ideal for protective applications.

Para-aramid Kevlar® threads can withstand operating temperatures up to 170 °C and peak temperatures up to 350 °C thanks to their composition out of 100 % para-aramid fibre.

Meta-aramid Nomex® threads are appreciated for their good thermal and chemical properties. They can withstand operating temperatures up to 200 °C and peak temperatures up to 300 °C.

Aramid threads should be stored away from UV rays in dark packaging. Over exposure to UV rays causes yellowing of the fibre and a decrease in tensile strength.

Final Advanced Materials offers meta-aramid or para-aramid fibre threads in size ranging from 25 to 140 tex.

Kevlar® Sewing Thread

Kevlar ® sewing thread is perfect for making high temperature resistant garments. It can also be used in the manufacture of safety clothing and composite materials. Very easy to use during the making, it is however necessary to use a suitable cutting system (special aramid chisel for example). The Kevlar ® yarn is available in 0.23 mm, 0.30 mm, 0.40 mm, and 0.51 mm diameters, sold in 3000 m reels.
