Glass Core with Aramid sheath

Introduction to glass core with aramid sheath

A glass core with an Aramid sheath is a composite yarn consisting of a central core made of glass fibers and an outer layer composed of Aramid fibers. This dual-layer construction combines the high tensile strength of glass with the toughness and flexibility of Aramid, resulting in a yarn with superior mechanical properties and enhanced performance characteristics.

This composite yarn offers a balance of strength, durability, and versatility for demanding industrial and commercial environments.


Properties of glass core with aramid sheath

  • High Strength: The glass core provides exceptional tensile strength, contributing to the overall robustness of the yarn.
  • Toughness: The aramid sheath enhances the yarn's durability and resistance to abrasion, ensuring longevity in demanding applications.
  • Flexibility: Despite its strength, the yarn maintains a degree of flexibility, allowing for ease of handling and manipulation.
  • Chemical Resistance: Aramid fibers offer resistance to many chemicals, protecting the yarn from degradation in harsh environments.
  • Thermal Stability: The glass core provides thermal stability, while the Aramid sheath enhances heat resistance, making the yarn suitable for high-temperature applications.
  • Lightweight: The combination of glass core and Aramid sheath results in a lightweight yarn, facilitating ease of use and transportation.
  • Low Stretch: Minimal elongation under load ensures dimensional stability and reliability in load-bearing applications.
  • Electrical Insulation: The glass core provides electrical insulation properties, while the Aramid sheath adds a layer of protection against electrical hazards.
  • UV Resistance: Aramid fibers offer UV resistance, protecting the yarn from degradation due to prolonged exposure to sunlight.
  • Corrosion Resistance: The glass core is inert and resistant to corrosion, ensuring the yarn's performance in corrosive environments.
