It is 4 times more cut resistant than leather, almost 2 times more cut resistant than equal weight cotton and 40% more cut resistant than NOMEX®. The cut resistant properties of KEVLAR® will not diminish or wear out, even after repeated laundering. KEVLAR® has outstanding high-temperature resistance and low thermal conductivity. It will not burn, melt, or support combustion. It will not decompose until exposed to temperatures exceeding 800°-900°F.
