Aramid webbing is crafted using synthetic aromatic polyamide fiber as its primary material. Aramid fiber, along with carbon fiber and ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene fiber, are recognized as the world’s top three high-tech fibers. Among these, Kevlar fiber, developed by the United States-based company DuPont, stands out as a prominent and representative aramid fiber product brand.
High Strength, Ultra Lightweight
Aramid’s strength surpasses that of high-quality steel by 5-6 times, with a modulus of 2-3 times higher than steel or glass fiber. Additionally, it boasts twice the toughness of steel while weighing only 1/5 of steel.
High Working Temperature
Aramid fiber features an extensive continuous use temperature range, allowing for sustained operation from -196°C to 204°C. It exhibits zero shrinkage at 150°C and remains stable even at high temperatures of 560°C without decomposing or melting. Moreover, it offers excellent insulation, corrosion resistance, and boasts a long life cycle.
Chemical Resistant
It also has the advantage of good resistance to many chemicals, acids, and solvents, making aramid webbing suitable for use in harsh environments where exposure to chemicals is a concern.
