Details
Aluminized para-aramid blend is a strong and
extremely heat resistant fabric. It is composed of
para-aramid blend fibers surrounding fiberglass
materials, and finished with an aluminized coating.
Like many of the other aluminized primary protective
fabrics, it performs very well on tests for both the EN
531 (presently superseded by the EN ISO 16112), and
ASTM F955 certifications. Aluminized para-aramid
blend provides a high degree of protection from
molten aluminum and iron splash, as well as radiant
heat. However, its fiberglass content also makes it
protective against high contact heat, withstanding
temperatures of 400-600° F.
The fabric weight, its molten metal splash protection,
and its high contact heat capability make it a great
choice for gloves, mitts, safety sleeves and aprons.
It also lends itself well to any garments worn where
there is a higher probability of contact, or handling of
extremely hot surfaces or objects.
