ALPHA-SIL style 600 is a medium weight silica fabric, tan in color, with superior physical and thermal characteristics compared to traditional silica fabrics. ANSI/FM 4950 approved for welding curtains. This material can meet MIL C24576A Type 1.The unique properties of ALPHA-Sil Style 600 make it an extremely cost-effective alternative to regular silica fabrics with superior physical properties, such as abrasion resistance and breaking strength, as a bonus. The vermiculite coating that is on ALPHA-Sil performs a dual task. Initially it reduces the ability of the fabric to fray making it more workable through the cutting and sewing processes. The even greater duty of the vermiculite coating is to dissipate the heat across the fabric rather than allow heat from molten slag to fester in a single point allowing greater protection from molten slag going through the fabric. These factors along with the higher melting point of the amorphous silica allow ALPHA-SIL to be the fabric of choice where high heat resistance is desired.
