Metal Core Fiber

Hills metal core fiber is a regular polymer fiber with a real metal core. Any melt spinnable polymer can be used to make this fiber. The metal content can be as low as 1%.

This fiber is spun using a low melt temperature metal alloy that is extruded along with the polymer directly into the core of the fiber. Since the core is real metal it is 1000 times as conductive as standard carbon filled conductive fibers so it is a superior substitute for antistatic applications. Also the silver color allows it to be used in all colors without causing color pollution. Other applications are RADAR reflective cloth, electronic textiles, micro wiring and micro medical devices.
