Aluminized CarbonX® by Textech Industries is a lightweight, and more comfortable choice in aluminized primary protective apparel. It works well for outer layer garments such as coats, jackets, hoods, full-body suits, pants, leggings, overshoes, and spats. The combination of non-flammable CarbonX® and Z-Flex® aluminization provides outstanding protection from molten metal splash and high temperatures. CarbonX® is a high-performance, truly nonflammable fabric that will not burn, ignite, or melt, and protects against molten metal splash, sparks, hot liquids, and high temperatures. Through the Z-Flex® MLATM process, or multilayer aluminization, the CarbonX® base becomes coated with several layers of aluminum, protective films, and high heat adhesives. If one layer breaks down, there is another available to protect. At 12 oz. / sq. yd., aluminized CarbonX® is among the lightest fabrics that can pass the ASTM F955 pour test for both aluminum and iron. It also receives high marks for radiant heat protection, and aluminum and iron molten metal splash resistance, according to the European standard EN ISO 11612.
