Z-Flex® Fibre Fabrics 1,650 °C

Z-Flex® Fibre Fabrics, heat-resistant up to 1,650 °C

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

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

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