Heat resistant pad for use with rear facilities of aluminium extrusion pressing machine

Abstract From the Canadian patent

Disclosed herein is a heat resistant pad which comprises a plurality of batt layers each batt, layer consisting essentially of carbon fibers admixed with aromatic polyamide fibers, said batt layers being superimposed one on another and entangled into an integral felt-like structure by needle punching. A heat resistant pad of such constitution has the property of adequate flexibility, wear resistance, impact resistance, frictional coefficient and cushioning property for use with rear facilities of an aluminum extrusion pressing machine. Also disclosed is a heat resistant pad coated and impregnated with a silicone resin to improve wear resistance and impact resistance.
