With their antistatic and antibacterial properties, as well as their high electrical and thermal conductivity, Shieldex conductive threads can be used in a wide range of applications. The full silver-plated polyamide yarns can be twisted, knitted, embroidered, woven and spun like uncoated yarns. They are used, among other things, as current conductors for sensors, for the manufacture of clothing and home textiles as well as smart textiles. Shieldex conductive threads are indicated with the titer in dtex and are offered in different constructions, e.g. open, twisted, or plied.
The extremely conductive Shieldex TPU yarn, which is protected from external influences thanks to an insulating sheath consisting of thermoplastic polyurethane, is an ideal replacement for conventional cables thanks to its textile structure can be processed in conductive fabrics.
Shieldex twisted yarns are tear-resistant and highly conductive. They are ideally suited to all technical applications and are primarily used as conductive textiles in the automotive and smart textile sectors due to their electrically conductive properties.
Shieldex silver-plated yarns are available as monofilaments, multifilaments and twisted yarns. Their antistatic, antimicrobial and thermally conductive properties make them very versatile. The conductive threads can be used for any application.
Shieldex fibres can be spun easily with natural and chemical fibres and are thus particularly versatile in terms of their possible applications in conductive textiles. We produce them in various lengths and versions. Our Shieldex fibres are primarily worked into clothing and home textiles.
