MACHINABILITY
:
|
| W |
ool Felt can be die cut into intricate shapes which will
not fray or ravel. It can be stripped, skived, |
heat
formed
and run through dies which
will form
it into cylindrical wicks. It ca
n
be sewed readily and can be bonded
to most surfaces. Hard
Felt can be ground or
machined.

elt
is available in thick nesses ranging from 1 mm
to 60 mm,
in densities from 0.15 to
0.80
in a |
wide
range of qualities, colours etc.

RESISTANCE
TO TEMPERATURE : |

ool
Felt is essentially
ageless. It does not deteriorate
with age and its strength, resilience
|
and
dimensions
remain constant for long time.

ithin
a temperature range of -60 °F to + 250 °F,
if allowed to regain its natural moisture content |
at occasional
intervals, wool felt evidences no change
in strength,
flexibility and other properties. For shorter intervals
it can resist even higher temperatures.

INSULATION PROPERTIES :
FILTRATION : |
| W |
ool
Felt is completely inert to most hydrocarbons and to a
wide range of other chemicals. It is fairly
|
resistant to
acid but is damaged by alkalis. Water does not
harm it but may
cause dimensional changes.
| W |
ool
felt does not ignite readily; and, when ignited, will
under most circumstances extinguish itself. |
No toxic
fumes are released in significant quantities.
| W |
ool
Felt provides excellent insulation against cold and
provides a high degree of sound absorption. |
| F |
elt
is a superb filter
for many liquids and
gases Densities and thickness can
be altered to achieve
|
almost any
degree of filtration.
