High Temperature Z-Flex® Fibre Fabrics 1,650 °C

Z-Flex® Fibre Fabrics, up to 1,650 °C

Our partner Newtex offers a wide range of fire resistant and extreme temperature resistant products since 1978. The Zetex® and ZetexPlus® ranges present a great variety of heat resistant textiles which can withstand temperatures up to 1,095 °C °C.

Z-Flex® fabrics are made of a glass fibre fabric basis and an aluminium coating that ensures good resistance to flames and splashes of molten metal. Moreover, they reflect up to 95 % of radiant heat, which can reach 1,650 °C, with a contact temperature of 175 °C. These products also offer good mechanical strengh and chemical resistance.

Thanks to these properties, Z-Flex® fabrics can be found in numerous applications in the industry. They are mainly used for the manufacture of fire protection systems and equipments, fire protective clothing, equipment for automotive applications or also high temperature and fire resistant barriers.
