Aramid 1414 Staple Fiber Fabric
Gram weight: 100gsm
Aramid products are available as filament yarn, staple fiber or pulp. They retain much of their strength at high temperatures. This staple aramid woven fabric obtains perfect-protection , with yarn weaving structure and excellent formability.
High characteristics of the aramid products:
The word 'aramid' is a contraction of 'aromatic polyamide'. The chemical name is para phenylene terephthalamide or PPD-T. Created in the 1960's, aramid fibres consist of yellow filaments of about ten microns in diameter, assembled into threads.
Woven in plain weave, 100 % para-aramid fabrics (Kevlar®) have excellent thermal characteristics. In addition to their good insulating properties, they can reach a peak temperature of 500 °C and a continuous temperature of 350 °C. In addition to this, they have excellent resistance to cuts, abrasion, tearing and acids, as well as excellent mechanical properties. Available in different versions (aluminised, fleece, etc.), they are particularly suitable for the manufacture of protective clothing and thermal insulation.

What is aramid?
Aramid, short for "aromatic polyamide," is a class of synthetic, high-performance fibers. Meta-aramid fibers were first commercially applied in the early 1960s, with para-aramid fibers being developed in following decade. They are unique because their structures, characterized by polymer chains, are linked through powerful hydrogen bonds that efficiently transfer mechanical stress.
Aramids are man-made fibers with enhanced structural properties, known for their incredible tensile strength. They are used in advanced products where light weight, yet high strength is needed.These characteristics make aramids perfectly suited to various industries like automotive, aerospace and defense, where heat resistance and exceptional strength are vital.
What is the main application of the aramid products?
Heat and Flame Resistance: These fibers are highly resistant to heat and flames, which makes them suitable for use in protective clothing, such as firefighter uniforms or industrial safety gear.
Abrasion Resistance: The fabric is resistant to wear and tear, which prolongs the lifespan of products made from it.
Main application:
Applications for Aramid 1414 staple fiber fabric include:
Protective Clothing: Used in garments for military, law enforcement, and firefighting applications.
Industrial Applications: For reinforcing composites or in environments where high-strength materials are needed.
Automotive and Aerospace: In components where high strength and lightweight properties are advantageous.
