    Discover 3M™ Nextel™ Ceramic Fibres and Textiles for High Temperature Applications

    For industrial use, the material used in the lining of furnaces for interior surfaces, zone dividers and tube seals must be able to handle extreme heat. That is in addition to having resistance to chemical exposure and damage from abrasion and thermal shock. 3M meets these challenges whereas solutions from other refractory textiles may not.

    3M™ Nextel™ Ceramic Fabrics and Textiles can withstand temperatures of up to 1300 °C  (2372 °F) while protecting furnace surfaces and equipment for long, cost-effective life cycles. The unique combination of flexibility and durability at high temperatures sets them apart from other high-temperature textiles like aramids, carbon, quartz and glass and enables them to provide long lasting solutions for furnace linings, tube seals, heat shields and more.


The advantages of 3M Nextel Ceramic Fibres

They feature excellent resistance to thermal shock and can be fabricated into high temperature thermal insulation.

Applications of 3M Nextel Ceramic Fibres

  • ceramic furnace insulation
    Furnace Linings

    Furnace lining systems with 3M Nextel Ceramic Fibres will help reduce dust, avoid product contamination and extend the lifetime of the furnace insulation. Ceramic furnace insulation is oxidation resistant, chemically resistant, lightweight and flame resistant. They minimize erosion in ceramic bulk fibre modules and other insulating materials, which helps to reduce maintenance costs.

  • nextel ceramic fibre for industrial tube seal
    Tube seals

    Save money on tube seals by decreasing fuel consumption, reducing heat loss and controlling excess oxygen. 3M Nextel Ceramic Fibres can be used as long-term solutions at temperatures of 482–1300 °C (900–2372 °F). They maintain their sealing ability and integrity against the intense heat found in process heaters and furnace reformers. By stopping excess air from entering the system, tube seals made with 3M Nextel Ceramic Fibres help prevent harmful nitrous oxide emissions.

  • high temperature ceramic fibre for industrial heat shields
    Heat shields

    Lightweight, flexible and featuring excellent resistance to thermal shock, 3M Nextel Ceramic Fibres can be sewn into countless forms: heat shields to protect specific areas, pads for transporting high-temperature materials, or ties for securing an object within a high-temperature location. They are an excellent choice for heat shields on radiant coils since they help prevent hot spots, which in turn helps to reduce coke formation within the tubes.

    High temperature application ceramic fibres

    3M Nextel Ceramic Fibres’ thermomechanical integrity allows them to last longer, retain flexibility, and survive temperatures beyond other refractory fibres.

    Ceramic matrix composites (CMC) that last longer and survive hotter environments

    Raise your component's temperature capability when mixing 3M Nextel N610 and N720 with oxide as a CMC. This gives better performance as compared to high temperature metals such as titanium.
