Nomex is extremely heat resistant. It chars at 600° F ( 315° C ), begins to decompose at 700° ( 357° C ), and does not melt. This makes Nomex a great thread for safety garments such as fire fighting gear, automobile racing suits, and flight suits where there is potential high heat exposure.
Important - Safety garments are mostly fabric and other materials and thread is a very small part of the garment. If these other materials are significantly
less
or
more
heat resistant than the thread, overall safety will be compromised. Please note that fire retardant is NOT fire-proof. For example, these threads will burn when exposed to a 2500°F (1357°C) cigarette lighter.
Strength - Nomex is strong enough for sewing seams on clothing and other projects that require normal thread strength. For example, the break strength for a middleweight ( Size 92 ) Nomex is about 9 pounds. This compares to 15 pounds for non-fire retardant nylon and polyester and 35 pounds for fire retardant Kevlar. Bottom line, Nomex is the best choice for normal fire retardant sewing.
I have attempted to match the colors of the threads as closely as possible. However, due to monitor differences and other limitations, the actual color of the thread may be slightly different than displayed.
