Ceramic Fibre Threads 1,400 °C

Ceramic Fibre Threads, up to 1,400 °C

Composed mainly of alumina (Al₂O₃) at different percentages, the innovative continuous polycrystalline ceramic fibre supplied by Final Advanced Materials present mechanical and thermal properties superior to those of other fibrous materials, including quartz, silica, glass or aramid. Moreover, the metallic oxides at the heart of its composition ensure that the processing of this fibre into ceramic textiles is particularly simple.

Ceramic fibre sewing threads can withstand operating temperatures up to 1,300 °C and peak temperatures up to 1,400 °C. They are designed for thermal, electrical and mechanical applications subjected to extreme conditions, such as fire protections or electrical and chemical insulators. Their great resistance to abrasion makes them ideal for sewing.

Final Advanced Materials proposes their ceramic fibre threads untreated or with a heat cleaned or a heat treated finish. These treatments reduce irritation during handling, airborne fibres as well as the amount of smoke produced at high temperatures. They can also prevent the physical degradation of the fibres when they are subjected to hot and humid conditions for an extended period.
