This fabric is 0,3 mm thick and woven from 100%kevlar.
High-performance aramid fabric engineered for extreme strength and durability in a low-profile form factor. Despite its thin, paper-like thickness, it offers the legendary impact and heat resistance of Kevlar (Para-aramid), making it an ideal material for specialized technical applications.
This material is suitable as a wick for situations where standard tape wick is not wide enough.
Thickness: 0,3 mm
Density: ~1.44 g/cm³
Tensile strength: 2.8 – 3.6 GPa (up to 5× stronger than steel by weight)
Young’s modulus: 70 – 125 GPa
Decomposition temperature: ~450–500 °C
Thermal conductivity: very low
Cut resistance: extremely high
Elongation at break: ~2.5 – 4 %
Impact energy absorption: very high
Flammability: non-melting, chars instead of burning
Kevlar does not melt — it gradually decomposes, providing heat and flame protection.
Chemical resistance
Resistant to:
organic solvents
petroleum products
most chemicals
Sensitive to:
UV exposure (long-term degradation)
strong acids and bases
moisture under constant load
Therefore coatings or rubber encapsulation are commonly used.
Electrical properties
Electrical insulator
Dielectric strength approx. 20 kV/mm
Used in electrical insulation and composite reinforcement
Applications of Kevlar
Protection and safety
body armor and helmets
cut-resistant gloves
firefighter gear
blast and fragmentation protection
security panels and safes
The fiber spreads projectile energy across the fabric surface.
Automotive and aerospace
tire reinforcement
brake pads and clutches
lightweight composite body panels
aircraft fuel tanks
high-pressure hoses
It reduces weight while improving puncture resistance.
Industrial engineering
composite reinforcement
high-strength ropes and straps
fiber-optic cable protection
drive belts
robotic cable shielding
A Kevlar rope can achieve similar strength as steel at about 20 % of the weight.
Sports and outdoor
kayaks and boats
skis and snowboards
motorcycle protective clothing
drone racing frames
speaker diaphragms
Chosen for strength, vibration damping and lightweight properties.
Advanced modern uses
EV battery puncture protection
spacecraft composites
EMI shielding hybrid laminates
fire performance equipment
