Meta-aramid knitted fabric used for insulation industrial protective clothing
Sep 03,2025
The knit structure of meta-aramid knitted fabric is formed by interlocking loops, inherently providing better elasticity and stretchability than woven fabrics (warp and weft yarns woven perpendicularly). The knitting process makes the garments fit the body better, with less restriction during movement and higher comfort, especially suitable for work scenarios requiring large range of motion (such as firefighting, rescue, and electrical maintenance). The loop structure of knitted fabrics naturally has more and larger pores, resulting in better breathability and moisture-wicking compared to woven fabrics of the same weight.
Strong flame retardant and fire resistance
Does not burn when exposed to fire, only carbonizes, and does not melt or drip when removed from the fire source, making it a high-quality flame retardant material.
Excellent thermal stability
Can maintain performance at high temperatures. Nomex fibers retain over 80% of their original strength after prolonged use at 200°C.
Can withstand short-term exposure to temperatures as high as 400°C.
Good electrical insulation
High dielectric strength, used for insulation protection in the power industry.
Excellent chemical stability
Resistant to most acids, alkalis, and organic solvents, with good corrosion resistance.
High strength and high abrasion resistance,
Excellent mechanical properties, making the garments durable.
Lightweight, high strength, and wear-resistant. Elastic and puncture-resistant.
Inherently non-toxic
Low smoke toxicity when burning. It is an environmentally friendly material that can naturally degrade.
1. High-end industrial protective clothing
Petrochemical and natural gas: close-fitting underwear or base layer workwear for refinery and drilling platform workers. Requires flash fire and arc flash protection while allowing free movement.
Power industry: protective clothing for operation and maintenance personnel and live-line workers at power plants and grid companies. Requires insulation and flame retardancy without restricting climbing, maintenance, and other movements.
Metallurgy, casting, glass: clothing for workers exposed to high-temperature radiant heat environments, requiring heat resistance as well as breathability and moisture-wicking.
Auto racing: flame-retardant underwear for race car drivers, meeting high standards of comfort and safety.
2. Firefighter close-fitting protective layer
As the innermost thermal insulation and comfort layer in firefighting suits. It directly contacts the skin, and its excellent moisture absorption and wicking, softness, and elasticity are crucial for keeping firefighters dry, comfortable, and mobile, playing a key role in enhancing overall protection effectiveness.
3. Special defense equipment
Special equipment: used to make flame-retardant underwear and training uniform base materials for special forces such as tank crew and air force pilots, providing basic flame protection and high wearing comfort.
Other professional fields: professional racing, high-performance sports, and any other occupational environments with heat hazards requiring high mobility.
