badger Report post Posted June 17, 2009 Randy, The brand name is 'Nomex'. Not being a smart-ass, but I thought it may make your search easier. Cheers, Badger Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Art Report post Posted June 17, 2009 Hi Randy, Pegasus has it, tex 60, since they supply racing folks, they will have a lot of different colors. It is about $10 for a 100 yard roll. http://www.pegasusautoracing.com/ Art Try the thread exchange and Ebay. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Art Report post Posted June 17, 2009 Hi Randy, I didn't read far enough. You will need sizes 180, 240, or 300 in Nomex® Multifilament. For fire gear, I use Kevlar® in size 210, but for blankets I use 400 Twisted. You can buy full spools from John Howard. http://www.johnhowardcompany.com/ Art Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
