Aramid fiber fabric Hexcel Composites
Hexcel manufactures aramid fabrics for use in aerospace applications as well as marine, tooling and recreational products where high strength, low weight, and impact resistance are essential.
Aramid fibers are 43 percent lighter than fiber glass, with a density of 1.44 g/cc compared to 2.55 g/cc for fiber glass. They are twice as strong as E-glass, ten times as strong as aluminum and approach the strength of high strength carbon on a specific tensile strength basis.
