What are HPPE cut resistant fibers?
HPPE is compared with conventional aramid fibers (which are also used for the manufacture of protective clothing) 40 times higher tensile strength. With respect to carbon fiber or glass fiber tensile strength 60 times and 15 times more tensile strength than steel. Due to its UV stability, low ductility and high cut resistance it offers ideal conditions for processing in protective articles. Therefore, it is used among others in the manufacture of helmets, shields / clothing and armor.

Level-5 – what is that?
To determine the cut resistance of a fabric, a razor blade is used to cut into the material. The more pressure can be applied to the razor blade without damaging the fabric, the higher the cut resistance: a small cut resistance has a level of 1, the highest possible level is 5.
