TECHNICAL
We produce SOLTA®FELT roller goods in widths up to 2000 mm. However, just like the lengths, they depend on the thickness, the area weight and finally the quality. The thicknesses are between 1 mm and 30 mm. Wool felts are classified according to the degree of hardness.
Overview standard wool felts
Applications
Our SOLTA®FELT wool felts are an initial material for a number of manufacturing parts, which, for example are used in the following areas:
- the automobile industry
- mechanical engineering
- electrical industry / household device manufacturers
- furniture industry
- packaging materials
- shoe manufacturing
- steel production and finishing
- design and architecture
- musical instrument construction
- surface processing
We work with our customers to develop specific solutions for applications in the widest range of applications.
Properties
| sealing in mechanical engineering | in mechanical engineering, vehicle engineering, instrument construction |
| padding | as a packaging felt, in the orthopedic area |
| absorb, suction liquids | e. g. oil-impregnated ball bearing seals |
| saving, transferring liquids | stamp pads |
| polishing, grinding | for the surface treatment of wood, glass, metal etc. |
| braking | stripping or braking felt in the steel industry |
| insulating, noise insulation | as a wall, ceiling covering in interior finishing |
| hazardous material absorption | formaldehyde can be absorbed by wool |
Finishing
| wool felt Bfl-s1 classification | wool felts finished to be flame-retardant from GEBR. RÖDERS AG were tested and classified by MPA NRW (Material Test Office North Rhine-Westphalia) according to DIN EN 13501-1. Wool felts starting at 52% wool content, in thicknesses of 1 mm to 20 mm and in densities of 0.15 g/cm³ to 0.36 g/cm³, meet the requirements of the fire class Bfl-s1 (flame-resistant construction materials). |
| water-repellent | if there is a danger that felts are exposed to a high level of moisture, it is recommended also carrying out an additional water-repellent finishing. |
| moth protection | if necessary, the felts can be treated against moth bites. |
| slip-resistant | we recommend our slip-resistant equipment for carpets and seat cushions. Any dangerous or bothersome slipping can thereby be prevented. |
| other equipment possibilities | we use a large number of different finishings to change the products to make them more "handy." Wool felts can be equipped to be up to board hard in this way. |
