- 34 % meta-aramid (Nomex®) and para-aramid (Kevlar®)
Nomex® is a high-temperature resistant meta-aramid fibre that doesn’t support combustion in the air. A key factor in the protection provided by Nomex® is its ability to carbonize and thicken when exposed to intense heat. Kevlar® fiber provide strength at high temperatures, making it ideal for high-heat applications. Both Nomex® & Kevlar® is INHERENTLY flame-resistant and will not melt.
