Military fighter jet utilizing high performance fabrics |
BGF has supplied fabrics woven from aramid fiber since its introduction
in the early 70's. Our expertise in weaving high performance yarns
for the Advanced Composites industry makes BGF the premier supplier
of aramid fabrics in the world.
Fabrics woven from aramid yarns, Kevlar® and Twaron® are strong
and lightweight, the ideal solution for aerospace composites where
light weight, strength and stability are crucial.

Applications: Structural aircraft
parts
Characteristics:
- Excellent thermal & dimensional stability
- Performs with no strength loss up to temperatures of 320° F for
extended periods.
- Lighter in weight than E-Glass with higher specific strengths.
- Sensitive to direct exposure from UV light; however, demonstrates
little or no change in a composite when it is indirectly exposed to
UV light.
- Will not melt or support combustion, however, it will begin to caramelize
at approximately 800°F.
Configurations:
- 500 yard roll lengths
- Standard widths: 38", 50"
- Standard finish: 618 scouring process to remove extractible material
(to less than .01%) maximizing resin compatibility.
