Overview

Para-aramid (Kevlar) yarn impregnated with PTFE. Extremely high tensile strength makes this the choice for highly abrasive media — slurries, paper stock, suspensions with solids. Resists extrusion at high pressure where softer packings would fail. Common in pulp & paper and mineral processing.
