Excellent Thermal Stability 5 Micron Fiber Diameter Basalt Fiber Twisted Yarn Industrial Textile Use
Our 5‑Micron Basalt Fiber Twisted Yarn is a premium‑grade continuous filament yarn engineered for demanding industrial textile applications. Produced from naturally occurring volcanic rock, this yarn combines an ultra‑fine 5‑micron filament diameter with a precise twisting process to deliver unmatched flexibility, coverage, and thermal resilience – all while maintaining the inherent eco‑friendliness of basalt.
With a filament diameter significantly finer than standard basalt yarns (typically 7–17 µm), this product opens new possibilities for lightweight, high‑strength textiles that require superior drapeability and surface uniformity.

Key Features
· Excellent Thermal Stability
Withstands continuous service from ‑260°C up to +900°C (short‑term peaks to 982°C) without degradation – ideal for fire‑resistant fabrics and high‑heat insulation.
· Ultra‑Fine 5‑Micron Diameter
The finer filament offers:
· Higher specific surface area for better coating/adhesion
· Improved yarn softness and bending fatigue resistance
· Smoother, more uniform textile surfaces for filtration and wrapping
· Twisted Yarn Construction
Precision Z‑ or S‑twist (120–150 twists/m) enhances:
· Tensile strength and abrasion resistance
· Handling ease during weaving, knitting, or braiding
· Dimensional stability in end‑use textiles
· Chemical & Environmental Durability
Excellent resistance to alkalis (pH up to 14), acids, UV radiation, and moisture absorption < 0.1%.
· Electrical Insulation
High dielectric strength makes it suitable for electronic textile applications.

Industrial Textile Applications
Thanks to its 5‑micron fineness and twisted structure, this yarn excels in:
· High‑temperature filtration fabrics – fine mesh with lower pressure drop
· Fire‑retardant curtains and welding blankets – lightweight yet protective
· Reinforcement for composite prepregs – improved resin wet‑out
· Braided sleeving and cable insulation – flexible and crush‑resistant
· Sealing and gasket materials – excellent compressibility
· Aerospace interior textiles – non‑combustible and low smoke emission
