Major Application of Para Aramid Fibers

Thanks to the outstanding properties of aramid fibers, they can be used in a wide variety of applications.

• Flame-resistant clothing. For example, military MIL-G-181188B suits. This includes Heat-protective clothing and helmets.
• Substitute for asbestos (e.g. brake linings), whose fibers will give rise to pulmonary diseases after being inhaled into the lungs.
• Hot air filtration fabrics
• Reinforced thermoplastic pipes
• Bullet-proof wear: Body armor, competing with PE-based fiber products such as Dyneema and Spectra.
• Composite materials (they are often combined with carbon fiber
• Mechanical rubber reinforcement, Tires, most recently as Sulfron
• Ropes and cables, although severe weakening under impact, limits their use on boats and climbing. Aramid cables are more applicable to static load situations; for example, the cables used as guy-wires for hydro tower erection.
• Wicks for fire dancing
• Optical fiber cable systems
• ​​​​​​​Sailcloth (not necessarily racing boat sails), Boat hull material
• ​​​​​​​Sporting equipment, such as Tennis strings, Hockey sticks (normally in composition with such materials as wood and carbon), Snowboards，Drumheads, Wind instrument reeds, such as the Fibracell brand
• Loudspeaker diaphragms
• Fiber-reinforced concrete for building and bridges
• Jet engine enclosures, in aerospace
