Aramid Fibre Sewing Thread 350 °C
Aramid Fibre Sewing Threads, heat-resistant 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 mechanical and thermal properties. Moreover, they are non-fusible, resistant to abrasion as well as self-extinguishing and have high breaking strength. These products are therfore ideal for protective applications.
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.
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.
Over exposure to UV rays causes yellowing of the fibre and a decrease in tensile strength. Aramid threads should therefore be stored away from UV rays in dark packaging.
The aramid fibre threads provided by Final Advanced Materials are available in meta-aramid or para-aramid fibre and in size ranging from 25 to 140 tex.
