Nomex Felt Strip
Nomex Felt Strip for Aluminum Profile Protection Heat-resistant felt strips designed to reduce scratches, dents and impact damage during aluminum profile handling, storage and transportation.
Calm Nomex felt strips provide a soft, heat-resistant protective layer for aluminum profiles throughout the production and handling process. With a working temperature of up to 280°C, they are suitable for medium-temperature areas such as run-out tables, storage racks and aging furnaces.
The felt strips can be installed on iron racks, forklift forks, handling equipment and other contact surfaces to reduce rubbing and impact between aluminum profiles and metal components.

Features
🟠 Surface Protection
The soft felt surface helps reduce scratches and rubbing marks caused by contact with metal racks and handling equipment.
🟠 Heat Resistance
Nomex felt can withstand working temperatures of up to 280°C, making it suitable for medium-temperature areas and aging processes.
🟠 Impact Cushioning
The felt acts as a cushioning layer to absorb part of the impact when aluminum profiles are placed on or moved across metal surfaces.
🟠 Wear Resistance
Needle-punched Nomex felt provides a dense structure with good resistance to wear and deformation.
🟠 Flexible Installation
Felt strips can be installed on different contact surfaces and can be customized according to the required dimensions.
🟠 Resin Treatment
Resin treatment is available to improve abrasion resistance and extend service life.
Where Are Nomex Felt Strips Used?
Nomex felt strips can be used wherever aluminum profiles may come into contact with hard surfaces.
