Knowde Brand Highlights

Features & Benefits: Temperature Resistance

Monofils made of VESTAKEEP®, as are interwoven in fabric, can be used in special conveyor belts for drying or heat-treating products conveyed continuously on their surfaces. Other popular applications of PEEK include nonwovens manufacture, textile drying, food processing, and powder conveying.

High pressure dewatering
PEEK monofils interwoven into multiple layers hold up admirably in pressure-dewatering processes for chemical slurries or heatcompacting processes for fiberboard. Other uses include air (hot gas) filtration, or as a covering or high-temperature overlay on a conventional felt surface where burning through friction is to be avoided.

Protect electrical wiring
VESTAKEEP® braiding protects electric cables against abrasive damage, particularly at extreme temperatures and in specific areas such as automotive and nuclear installations. VESTAKEEP® monofils protect cables and cable bundles against mechanical stresses, even at high temperatures.

Good recovery
VESTAKEEP® bristles are resilient and functional in hot or chemically aggressive environments, maintaining their rigidity better than other materials, particularly in the 100–150°C range.
