BRAIDS

Dry packings are used for sealing and insulation of furnace, boiler and chimney doors, inspection holes and tunnel kilns. thermoTEX gland packings are used for dynamic sealing of centrifugal and piston pumps as well as of valves and fittings.

Up to 550°C GLAS
The base material of all GLAS textiles are E-glass filament yarns. A large storage volume and superior insulation properties are ensured by the texturing procedure. GLAS products are soft and pliable, feel very "textile" and do not cause any skin irritations nor are hazardous to health.

Up to 1100°C CERAMIC
Ceramic staple fibres are the main components of these products. The textile structure and suppleness as well as the low heat conductivity of the raw fibre provide excellent insu-lation properties. The rayon staple portion added as so-called process fibre decomposes from abt. 200°C. Cores spun in from glass filament yarn or chrome steel wire ensure that the strength is maintained in spite of the high temperature acting on the products.
