In Aramid fiber category, we generally supply para-aramid fiber woven fabrics. These fibers are also referred to as Kevlar. We have Kevlar fabrics available in Plain, Twill and UD weaves.
Kevlar has a unique combination of high strength, high modulus, toughness, electrical insulation and thermal stability. It was developed for demanding industrial and advanced-technology applications. Currently, many types of Kevlar are produced to meet a broad range of end uses.
Why use Aramid fibers?
- High strength
- Good resistance to abrasion
- Good resistance to organic solvents
- Non-conductive
- No melting point
- Low flammability
- Good fabric integrity at elevated temperatures
Main applications
- Bullet proof vests
- Aircrafts
- Sporting goods
- Conveyer belt
- High strength ropes
- Building reinforcements
- Heat and flame resistant garments
