Staple Spun Kevlar
A monocord twisted multifilament para-aramid sewing thread manufactured from Dupont Kevlar designed to provide tremendous tensile strength and short term heat or flame resistance. Excellent resistance to short term heat exposure, Excellent cut resistance, Superior strength to nylon or polyester based threads, Superior strength to meta-aramid threads, Good resistance to most organic solvents, Age has limited effect on physcial properties
Features:
• Fibre Resistance to Acid- Fair
• Fibre Resistance to Bleach- Poor
• Fibre Resistance to Alkali- Good
• Fibre Abrasion Resistance- Fair to Good
• Low elongation may require machine adjustments
• Fibre Melting Point- N/A (Does Not Melt- Decomposes at 427 deg C)
• Fibre Resistance to Heat- 200 deg C (Highest continuous temperature before breakdown)
• For long term high temperature, Meta-Aramid Thread, such as Nomex® or Anefil® Nomex® are recommended
