Abrasion & Radiant Heat Resistance
Woven from a core spun para-aramid yarns with a fiberglass core and aluminized using the Z-Flex MLA process, these fabrics provide enhanced abrasion resistance and protection from radiant heat. Z-Flex Aramid fabrics are often used to fabricate hand protection and personal protective equipment (PPE) for industrial and manufacturing environments in which workers are exposed to hot materials like molten metal. Aramid is commonly known by the brand name Kevlar®, a registered trademark of DuPont.
