NOMEX
As a top Nomex supplier, ESPE Manufacturing Co., Inc. designs, fabricates, and distributes a full range of Nomex products including Nomex papers and Nomex pressboards. Nomex-brand products incorporate meta-aramid polymers to offer excellent electrical insulation along with chemical, thermal, and radiation resistance, while also making your products stronger and more durable with its unique, heat-resistant synthetic fibers.
Used since the 1960s, Nomex comes in two basic forms: in rolls of thin gauge material called paper and in sheets of medium or thick gauge material called pressboard. We customize Nomex types and thicknesses to serve the vast field of applications requiring superior lightweight insulation materials.
Due to its distinctive properties, Nomex appears in a variety of applications across industries including:
Aerospace and marine:Forming honeycomb composites with materials such as Kevlar, Nomex helps aerospace and marine projects achieve lightweight craft structural rigidity in parts including doors, hulls, and wings.
Electrical power production: Due to its excellent dielectric strength and thermal properties, Nomex provides insulation in dry-type transformers and protects welders from arc flash. Wind turbines especially rely on Nomex-lined transformers for their ability to withstand adverse weather conditions.
Automotive: Automobiles rely on Nomex lining in heat shield padding and high-temperature tubing used in turbocharger applications.
