E-Glass Twisted Ropes, up to 700 °C
E-glass fibre is a high-quality fibre that stands out from other materials for its ability to withstand high temperatures and its great electrical insulation properties. With its rot-proof constitution, this fibre can resist the main chemical agents and remains dimensionally stable, even against strong variations in humidity and temperatures.
E-glass filaments with a diameter greater than 9 µm can have adverse effects on health, including skin irritations, whereas filaments smaller than 3 µm are respire and can lead to build-up in the respiratory system. To prevent these risks, the E-glass fibre twisted ropes offered by Final Advanced Materials are manufactured using filaments with a diameter ranging from 6 to 9 µm.
As they can withstand operating temperatures up to 550 °C and peak temperatures up to 700 °C, E-glass twisted ropes are used in the industry as high-temperature gaskets in industrial furnaces and chimneys.
Final Advanced Materials offers E-glass twisted ropes with a diameter ranging from 3 to 60 mm. For more information regarding the availability, refer to the technical data sheet.

The main difference between these two solutions is the working temperature. Zetex is stable from 500 to 700°C, while silicate fibres can withstand temperatures up to 1,000–1,200°C.
Biosoluble fibre twisted ropes and braided ropes are soft, flexible, and compressible. They retain some of their elasticity after compression, but it depends on the pressure exerted. The recovery rate also depends on the type of reinforcement used. Final Advanced Materials offers biosoluble fibre twisted ropes and braided ropes with fibreglass or stainless-steel reinforcements for ovens operating up to 1,200°C.
The rope’s diameter depends on the size of the groove. As a general rule, the rope should be 10% to 20% wider than the groove to ensure effective compression. These values depend on the nature of the components.
