Product description

Stainless steel yarn for ant-static textiles - Bekinox
© Bekaert

Bekaert Bekinox ® stainless steel fibres and yarns are used to safely discharge static electricity which can lead to explosions or damage electronic equipment.
If you rely on anti-static textiles made from Bekaert Bekinox® fibres, filaments and yarns, you prevent the build-up of static electricity and electrostatic discharges.

Reliable protection in explosive environments
In the petrochemical and gas industry, workers are often exposed to explosive atmospheres. Due to their excellent conductivity, our fibres and yarns take away the ignition source by preventing build up of static electricity.
Personal protective clothing made with Bekaert Bekinox yarns easily fulfill the international standards valid in the manufacturing and assembling process of the electronic industry. They make sure that static charge, generated by body movement and fabric friction, is led safely away to earth and does not destroy sensitive micro-electronic products or cause unseen latent damage which can get to the consumer and ultimately damage your product reliability and repuration. Fabrics with Bekaert Bekinox® fibres easily resist 50 industrial washings. A new range of cotton Bekinox® yarns have been developed for both summer and winter protective clothing.

Enhanced safety

Bekaert Bekinox® electro-conductive fibres and yarns in dust removal filters prevent explosions by avoiding electrostatic discharges.

Reliable under extreme conditions
Bekaert Bekinox® conductive yarns in big bags help to avoid explosions by preventing spark discharges.

Extra comfort and seamless performance
Bekaert Bekinox® stainless steel fibres in floor coverings provide comfort and protect electronic apparatus against defects caused by electrostatic discharge.

Ongoing effectiveness
Anti-static brushes made of Bekaert Bekinox® continuous filament yarns are mounted in fax machines, copiers, high-speed printers. They prevent malfunctioning due to static electricity.
