Basalt roving. The power of nature 

Basalt is well known volcanic lava rock that could be found in virtually every country around the world. Its main use is as crushed rock in construction, industrial and high way engineering. However, it is not commonly know that basalt can be manufactured into fine and superfine fibers.

Continuous BASALT fiber is a unique product derived from volcanic lava deposits. Fiber is manufactured from BASALT rock in a single-melt process and comprised of single-ingredient raw material melts. BASALT fibers are superior to other fibers in terms of thermal stability; heat and sound insulation properties, vibration resistance, resistance to chemically active environments and durability.

Advantages of BASALT Fibers
Working temperatures: - 260°C to + 982°C, melting point of + 1450°C
Extreme hardness, 8-9 on the Moh's scale (Diamond=10)
High tensile strength, 3000 - 4000 MPa
Low thermal conductivity (very good insulating properties)
Very high chemical resistance
Environmentally safe, 100% natural and inert, non-carcinogenic and non-toxic
Noncombustible and explosion proof
Excellent economic alternative to other high temperature resistant fibers
