Vermiculite Coated S-TEX Silica Fibre Webbing Tape: our S-TEX-CFW webbing tape is made by weaving textured twisted continuous filament silica yarn guaranteeing excellent thermal insulation properties.
S-TEX-CFW tape causes little irritation and resists continuous temperatures up to 1000°C. It does not vitrify and is recommended in substitution of ceramic fibre webbing. S-TEX-CFW also exhibits excellent chemical stability resisting attack from organic agents, water and hot acids (except hydrofluoric acid).
Vermiculite dispersions have been added to improve resistance to molten splash and greatly improve abrasion resistance. Our S-TEX-CFW webbings are produced using yarns manufactured in accordance with DIN and EN European standards. Our silica tape is incombustible according to DIN 4102 A2. We can manufacture these tapes up to 500mm wide.
