ARAMAT™

ARAMAT™ is a glass + Kevlar® complex, balanced in both warp and weft, mechanically bonded with a layer of glass fiber. ARAMAT™ is also balanced in volume, as the density of Kevlar® is approximately half of glass.

ARAMAT™ can be used in a wide range of applications. It been designed for use in serial production, both in large or small dimensions. Examples include: coast guard speedboats, offshore vessels, motor boats, sailboats, catamarans and trimarans.

 

Kevlar® is a registered trademark of E. I. du Pont de Nemours and Company or its affiliates.

Benefits

Due to the close bonding between glass and Kevlar® and the increased cohesion between fibers, ARAMAT™ delivers enhanced mechanical properties to laminates.

  • Robustness, durability, safety.
  • Improves impact strength.
  • Reduction in overall weight structure compared to conventional glass laminates, aluminum alloy and steel due to the lower density of Kevlar® (weight reduction approximately 6% – 12%).
  • Substantial reduction in labor (fewer layers).
  • Excellent compromise between cost and performance.
