Product Overview


In the demanding environment of high-performance motors and industrial machinery, where extreme temperatures and mechanical stress are constant challenges, the High Temp Aramid Rope for Motors stands as an essential component for reliable operation. Constructed from high-strength aramid fibers renowned for their exceptional thermal resistance, this specialized rope provides critical insulation, bundling, and structural support in motor windings, stators, and rotors. Its unique combination of heat resistance, tensile strength, and dielectric properties makes it indispensable for applications where conventional materials like nylon or polyester would quickly degrade, ensuring extended motor life and enhanced operational safety.


Product Features


Extreme Temperature Resistance

Engineered to excel in high-heat environments, the aramid rope maintains structural integrity through continuous exposure to 260°C (500°F) and intermittent exposure up to 400°C (752°F) . Unlike traditional materials that begin to degrade above 150°C, aramid fibers retain 90% of tensile strength after 1000 hours at 200°C, making them ideal for high-temperature motor applications . The rope remains flexible even in cold conditions, operating effectively from -20°C to 260°C.


Superior Mechanical Properties

With a minimum tensile strength of 2800 N/mm² and 3.5% elongation at break, the rope balances high strength with controlled flexibility, accommodating thermal expansion and vibration in motor operation . Its 18 kN minimum breaking force (for 6mm diameter) ensures reliable performance in load-bearing applications, while the braided construction provides abrasion resistance exceeding 50,000 cycles in wear testing .


Electrical & Chemical Resistance

The aramid rope offers excellent dielectric properties with a volume resistivity exceeding 10¹⁴ ohm·cm, making it suitable for electrical insulation applications in motors and generators . It exhibits strong resistance to most industrial chemicals, oils, and solvents while remaining unaffected by moisture absorption (<0.8% water uptake) . Unlike glass fiber alternatives, it won't cause skin irritation during installation.

Product Applications


Electric Motor Windings

Provides essential insulation and spacing between winding layers in high-performance AC and DC motors, particularly those used in industrial pumps, compressors, and heavy machinery operating at elevated temperatures.

Generator Components

Used in stator and rotor assemblies for power generation equipment, where it withstands the thermal cycling and vibration inherent in generator operation. Ideal for both portable generators and large-scale power station turbines.

Automotive & Aerospace Motors

Critical for electric vehicle traction motors, hybrid vehicle drive systems, and aircraft auxiliary motors where weight reduction and high-temperature performance are equally important. Resists degradation from automotive fluids and aviation fuels.

Industrial Machinery

Serves as a high-strength binder for heating elements, thermocouple leads, and cable harnesses in industrial ovens, kilns, and processing equipment. Its combination of strength and heat resistance prevents premature failure in continuous operation.


FAQ


Why choose aramid over other high-temperature materials?

Aramid fibers offer a unique balance of high tensile strength, thermal stability, and flexibility that surpasses alternatives like glass fiber or ceramic rope . Unlike glass fiber, aramid doesn't splinter or cause irritation; unlike ceramic, it maintains flexibility at low temperatures, making installation easier and reducing fatigue failure.

What sizes are available for different motor designs?

The rope is manufactured in diameters ranging from 0.5 mm to 12 mm, with custom sizes available for specialized applications . Standard spool lengths include 50m, 100m, and 500m options to accommodate both small repair jobs and large-scale manufacturing requirements.

How does it perform in humid or wet environments?

Aramid fibers are inherently hydrophobic, absorbing less than 1% moisture by weight even in saturated conditions . This low water uptake ensures consistent electrical insulation properties and prevents strength degradation in humid environments, making it suitable for motors in food processing, washing facilities, and outdoor installations.

Can it be used in contact with lubricants or coolants?

Yes, the rope exhibits excellent resistance to mineral oils, synthetic lubricants, and coolant fluids commonly found in motor systems . It won't swell, dissolve, or degrade when exposed to these substances, maintaining its structural and insulating properties throughout the motor's service life.
