ceramic fiber textiles
our ceramic fiber textile family includes ropes, braids, cloth, tapes, and sleeving. Our textile are made from Alumina-silica ceramic fiber, free of asbestos. These fiber material can be used in different industrial applications under temperatures up to 2300F(1260C) and have excellent chemical stability and strong resistance to thermal shock and corrosion attack Exceptions are hydrofluoric and phosphoric acids and concentrated alkalies.Our textiles also resist oxidation and reduction. If wet by water or steam, thermal properties are completely restored upon drying. No water of hydration is present.
Our textile contain 15% organic carriers, which helps to establish physical formation of products. The carriers burn out at about 750F(400C).Our textile also contain reinforcement insert materials of either inconel wire or continuous fiberglass filament to increase handling strength during installation and enhance fiber durability to rated temperatures of 2000F(1093C) for inconel wire and 1200F(649C) for fiberglass filament.
Multi-Ply Twisted Ropes (Made from Wicking)
These ropes are produced by twisting multiple plies of ceramic fiber wicking together. standard 3-ply twisted rope is relatively soft and low in density and is the most economical choice.HD9-ply twisted rope provides increased compression resistance and strength and is much higher in density(about 50% denser)than 3-ply twisted rope. Both rope are also available with covering of inconel wire mesh, which drastically increase resistance to mechanical abuse.
3-Ply Twisted Rope (Made from Yarns)
This kind of rope is made by forming many strands of yarn of into three separate plies, which are then twisted into a three-ply rope. This rope is slightly denser and more durable than the 3-ply twisted rope made from wicking.
Round and Square Braids
The highest density of our all ropes, the round and square braids are produced by overbraiding around a core of ceramic fiber to achieve maximum resistance to mechanical abuse. In addition to its superior strength, round and square braids also exhibit minimal unraveling when cut.
Woven Cloth, Tape, and sleeving
Our cloth, tape, and sleeving are very durable and flexible fabrics. Insert materials of inconel wire and fiberglass filament are incorporated into the yarn to increase tensile strength of the fabrics both before and after exposure to heat. Typical applications for cloth, tapes, and sleeving include gaskets, seals, furnace and welding curtains or pipe wrapping.
