3M™ Nextel™ Fabric AF-62, woven from 312 Grade continuous filament ceramic 1800 denier roving, is designed to withstand continuous temperatures up to 2200°F (1204°C). High weight with high air permeability, AF-40 is ideal for high temperature industrial and aerospace applications, and is available both sized and heat cleaned. Standard widths: 4, 12 & 30 inches.

3M™ Nextel™ Fabric AF-62 is woven from Nextel 312 high temperature continuous ceramic oxide yarn and is designed to withstand continuous high temperatures. With these properties, it can act as a flame barrier. Due to the unique properties of Nextel 312 fiber, this product outperforms the temperature limits of many other textiles, is thick, electrically insulating and flexible. Due to a unique double layer design construction and high air permeability, Nextel fabric AF-62 is an excellent component in burner applications. Among Nextel 312 fabrics, our Nextel fabric AF-62 is the thickest. This means that it is well-suited as a component in composite flexible seals, couplings and gaskets that need higher thickness.

3M™ Nextel™ Style AF woven ceramic fabrics are designed to meet the toughest thermal, mechanical and electrical performance requirements. They are heat, flame and oxidation resistant; and chemically resistant, lightweight, electrically insulating and flexible.
