Leached Silica

Standard, leached silica fabric for light-duty applications

Leached silica fabrics are the industry workhorse for welding cloth and light-duty, high-temperature industrial applications. From welding cloth to light-duty industrial applications, the standard leached silica fabrics are a cost-effective option. Temperature resistant, but not as durable as MaxSil®Tex silica fabrics, leached silica fabrics work well in the light-duty application, one-time use or as welding cloth curtains. Leached silica fabric is manufactured from glass fabric then leached to provide a minimum 95% Silica content product. This fabric is not preshrunk, so the material with shrink up to 13% in continuous high-temperature applications.
