Nylon Webbing Suppliers 

 

 

Nylon is a versatile fibre often specified for military webbing and is suitable for many other uses. 

 

• Nylon was the first commercially available synthetic fibre.
• The strength is high tenacity (Up to 9g/den).
• Elongation - approximately 20% at break -  more when wet . This means that nylon webbing will extend when put under tension outside.
• Abrasion - nylon has very good abrasion resistance.
• Moisture - has a regain of 4-5 % and feels damp quickly
• Temperature - the melting point is around 250 degrees C and is able to withstand 150 degrees C for many hours (It will discolour). Nylon can cope with low temperature very well (-80 Degrees C with no loss of strength).
• Nylon is difficult to ignite and tightly woven structures do not burn quickly.
• Excellent resistance to sunlight.
• Good chemical resistance to dilute acids, decomposes in strong acids. Good resistance to common alkalis.
• Can be dyed virtually any shade (fastness can be an issue on dark strong shades).
