High temperature textiles ,E'Glass yarns plied and texturised


E Glass Yarns
Texturising and Voluminising Texturised and voluminised glass yarns are manufactured from high performance E' glass filaments in a range of diameters from 6 to 13 microns. The filaments are assembled to the correct resultant tex and then passed over high pressure air jets to produce a lofted yarn with outstanding insulation properties. The extent that these yarns are bulked can be varied to suit individual applications.
The term Voluminised indicates that the yarn is bulked more or less evenly along the length as the filaments are all fed through the process at the same speed. Texturised yarns are more uneven in appearance and possess more pronounced loops achieved by varying the feed rates of a percentage of the filaments to create different effects. Texturised yarns are commonly used in decorative applications such as wall coverings and vertical blinds. We can offer Voluminised filament yarns up to 5000 tex and Texturised up to 1250 tex. These materials can be uptwisted and also plied to obtain a large number of variations.
Doubling and Twisting Unlike synthetic fibres E' Glass yarns require delicate handling and the use of modern purpose built machinery designed to minimise filamentation. Saveguard have made considerable investments in specialised equipment of this type to provide our customers with products of the highest quality.
