Not without putting your life in jeopardy; this would necessitate specific manufacturing processes involving some sort of binding agent.
It's structural, and it's used to make composites (it's frequently combined with carbon fiber twill in the same structure). Bulletproof aramid is a different type of aramid that is used in a different way.
It would, I'm confident. Because it's a loose weave, the nail will get caught between the threads.
Preparation should be thorough, the surface should be rough, and the area should be thoroughly cleaned. I used it with BoatFlex epoxy on mine. It was very well adhered to.
Selected User Reviews For 4" x 5 FT Red- Kevlar FABRIC-2x2 Twill WEAVE-3K/220g
If you're interested in this product, I recommend reading the entire review. When I first purchased it, I didn't care for it. It is not as tightly woven as other Kevlar. I initially purchased it but never used it. It was woven looser than other Kevlar hybrids, which I noticed. Now that I've been producing composite products as a side business, I've discovered a trick that works well and which I can employ without difficulty. br>br>If you're going to glue this to something, start by spraying glue on the non-stick surface. You're going to glue the cosmetic side. 3M77, 3M76, or 3M 90 are examples of Loctite spray adhesives. Because of its spray pattern, the 3M 77 is the most effective. However, spray one side with a light coat of spray adhesive before using it. Allow it to sit for a few hours to allow the fibers to bind together, making it more difficult to separate when working with it. br>br>As I previously stated, I did not use this at all at first, but due to the method I use, I have been able to use it without issue since then.
This product should not be used on fabric. I expected a much higher thread count and a tighter weave based on the photo, but this one comes in at 53 threads per usable distance of 3. 5" (with a 1/4" fringe on each side, it's technically 4 inches). So each ribbon (can't really call them threads) is 1/16th inch wide, with a very loose weave. Unacceptable for fabric applications; only suitable for epoxy-based projects.
Have you ever seen a track suit made of kevlar? I hadn't either, so I bought this to see if I could pull it off. This is not the case. Then I thought to myself, ".
It was exactly as I had hoped for.
It worked great to repair some oars, and I expect it to protect the tips as well.
It is deserving of your attention.
Excellent product.
