Pressed Wool Felts
Customers who need a premium felt product choose pressed wool felts, manufactured in compliance with American Society of Testing and Materials (ASTM) and Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE) standards. These felts, produced by a combination of chemical moisture, heat and pressure, are noted for their strength and density.
Typical wool felts applications are vibration control, gasketing, clutching, insulation, sealing, high temperature resistance, surface protection, braking, noise control, wiping, wicking and polishing.
Oldest form of fabric known to man, predates weaving and knitting.
Wool fibers or a blend of wool and other fibers are pressed together with steam and pressure to allow the fibers to naturally interlock.
This felting process produces a fabric that is slightly less durable than the woven felt but is less expensive and can be made thicker.
Parts will not fray and loose fibers are minimal.
Can achieve very high densities
Maximum thickness 3".
Typical uses include:
Filters
Wicks
Gaskets
Wipers
