Nomex

Nomex is a revolutionary material known for its outstanding flame-resistant properties, making it an essential choice for high-temperature applications. Developed by DuPont, Nomex is a type of meta-aramid fiber that provides exceptional protection against heat and flames. This material does not melt, drip, or support combustion in the air, ensuring maximum safety in extreme conditions.

Nomex is a substance that resists high temperatures, like Kevlar. It is three times lighter than Kevlar wick and is primarily used for swallowing bars, firefingers, and other burners where a great flame with minimal weight is desired. However, Nomex has inferior strength and durability compared to Kevlar, making it unsuitable for burners that fall frequently or for applications requiring prolonged burning times, such as poles and poi. Despite this, Nomex can be used as an inner layer if you want to save weight and money.

Nomex is widely used in various industries, including firefighting, military, and industrial work environments, where exposure to heat and flames is a significant risk. Its durability and resistance to chemical degradation also make it a preferred material for protective clothing, such as firefighter suits, military uniforms, and industrial safety gear.

Specifications:

• Width: 100 mm
• Thickness: 3.2 mm

1 piece = 1 meter. If you order 3 pieces, you will receive three meters of Nomex in its entirety.

Key Features of Nomex:

• Flame Resistance: Nomex fibers do not melt or support combustion, providing superior protection against fire hazards.
• Durability: Nomex is resistant to abrasions, tears, and chemicals, ensuring long-lasting performance in harsh environments.
• Lightweight and Comfortable: Despite its robust protective properties, Nomex is lightweight and breathable, offering comfort for extended wear.
• Versatile Applications: Ideal for protective clothing, insulation materials, and other high-temperature applications.

Whether you are looking for reliable protective gear or materials for high-heat environments, Nomex offers unmatched safety and durability, making it the go-to choice for professionals worldwide.
