Aramid Tape

Aramid braid tapes can be used as edge protection, as a connection between two components (e.g. upper and lower part of a canoe), as corner reinforcement, etc. These tapes are also suitable for engine and aggregate construction.

The advantage of aramid tapes over woven aramid tapes is that they cover a larger width. Thus, in the case of a braided tape, stretching or compressing not only influences the width but also the fibre angle. In this way, only one aramid tape can be used for a composite component with several layers. The fiber angle should be between 30° and 60°. So-called UD threads can be used for reinforcement in the 0° direction.
