Kevlar-Filled Wear-Resistant Nylon Sheets
- Color: Yellow
- Temperature Range: -40° to 300° F
- Tensile Strength: 16,000 psi (Excellent)
- Impact Strength: 2.7 ft.-lbs./in. (Good)
- Hardness: Not Rated (Hard)

Designed for extreme wear resistance, these nylon 6/6 sheets are filled with Kevlar to last up to 20 times longer than unfilled nylon. They’re also stronger than glass-filled nylon and withstand higher temperatures. Known as Hydlar Z, this material is often used for parts that are continuously exposed to wear and abrasion, such as wear strips and bushings.

Mildew-Resistant Aramid/Fiberglass Blend Fabric
A blend of aramid and fiberglass, this fabric resists mildew and abrasion. It is self-extinguishing and won't melt, so it's often used for insulation applications.

Composite Fabrics
Use these resin-free fabrics to reinforce or repair existing composites as well as create new composites. Mold custom-shaped composite parts by layering your choice of fabric with an epoxy. The epoxy (sold separately) is a two-part resin that begins to harden in 15 hours and reaches full strength in 4 days. Finished composite pieces withstand temperatures up to 250° or 350° F.
Fabrics with a plain, twill, or triaxial weave have fibers that are woven in alternating directions for uniform strength and rigidity in all directions. Easier to machine than fabrics with a unidirectional weave, their woven pattern holds the fibers together to limit splintering. Twill-weave fabrics are stronger than plain-weave fabrics. They’re also more flexible, making them easier to manipulate into complex shapes. They will not, however, retain their shape as well as plain-weave fabrics.
Kevlar fabrics are a super-tough material that offers excellent wear and abrasion resistance.

Composite Fiber Aramid Honeycomb Panels
- Face Color: Black
- Temperature Range: -100° to 250° F
- Yield Strength: Not Rated
- For Use Outdoors: No
With an aramid honeycomb core sandwiched between carbon fiber or fiberglass for rigidity, these panels are strong, but lightweight, and won’t conduct heat. Often used as wall panels in structural and insulating applications, they’re a lightweight alternative to solid composite and aluminum honeycomb panels.
Carbon-fiber-faced panels are stronger and more rigid than fiberglass-faced panels, so they resist deforming from bending, twisting, or buckling. They will, however, splinter from high-impact blows. These panels are lighter than fiberglass-faced panels. However, they conduct electricity, so don’t use them around electrical components.
Fiberglass-faced panels are often used around electrical components because they are good electrical insulators. They resist cracks from bumps and hits better than carbon-fiber-faced panels, but are not as strong or lightweight.
