Top 10 Aluminum Extrusion High Temp Felt Brands

1. What is high temp Felt

high temp Felt is mainly used on run-out tables, cooling beds, and conveying systems to protect hot aluminum profiles from scratches and deformation.

Typical operating temperature ranges from 180°C to 480°C, while extreme zones may require PBO felt up to ~600°C. This article lists 10 well-known high-temperature felt brands to help buyers quickly shortlist suitable suppliers.

Based on our long-term observation of aluminum extrusion plants in Asia, the Middle East, and Europe, felt performance is most critical at the following stages:

• Run-out table (hot zone): Initial profile support, highest temperature exposure
• Cooling bed: Continuous conveying with strict surface protection requirements
• Puller and stretcher sections: Dimensional stability and wear resistance
• Aging and downstream handling: Lower temperature but long service cycles

In practice, manufacturers often use different felt materials on different zones of the same line, balancing temperature resistance, service life, and cost efficiency.

3. Brand purchasing suggestions

Priority will be given to manufacturers with export experience

Brands such as BWF, Ecofill, and Pure Technology have stable supply and after-sales systems in the international market and can provide both standardized and customized support.

Emphasis on delivery capability and response speed

Choosing a manufacturer with independent processing and inventory capabilities can help reduce delivery cycles and improve the efficiency of responding to emergency orders or replacing parts.

Focus on “total cost” rather than unit price

Low-priced products may sacrifice heat resistance or lifespan, leading to frequent replacements and potential scratching. Cost per unit lifespan and equipment compatibility should be considered comprehensively.

One of our customers in Thailand switched from standard felt belts to Nomex felt belt, extending replacement cycles by 30% and significantly reducing costs.

Sample testing

Regardless of the size of the brand, it is recommended to request samples for production line testing before formal bulk purchase to evaluate whether they meet the company’s temperature, tension, and surface protection requirements.

4. FAQ

1. Foreign brands are much more expensive than domestic ones. Are they worth buying?

International brands such as BWF and Ecofill offer stable quality and long lifespan, making them suitable for high-end automated production lines.

Domestic brands offer advantages in terms of cost-effectiveness and delivery time. We recommend choosing the right brand based on your production line requirements.

2. How can I confirm that the manufacturer is a real manufacturer and not a trader?

You can ask the other party to provide real photos or videos of the factory, provide export qualifications and patent certificates, and check the ability to control product details. If you have a high-value order, you can personally inspect the factory for review.

3. How to ensure the delivery cycle and after-sales response?

It is recommended to give priority to brands with independent production, inventory management, and export experience, and to specify contract details such as delivery time, warranty terms, after-sales contact person, etc.

4. Can high temp Felt be customized in size?

Yes—most manufacturers support customization of thickness, width, and joining methods; always confirm tolerance and temperature zone first.

5. Which company should you choose?

This depends on production needs, budget, and quality requirements.

If you value stable production lines and excellent global service, consider well-known international brands like BWF and Ecofill.

If you’re looking for reasonable pricing, fast delivery, and custom sizes, brands like Pure Technology and Özdemir might be better choices.

If your profile surface requirement is high (anodizing/powder coating), choose felt with low shedding + stable density.

If you have frequent emergency replacements, prioritize suppliers with stock + fast lead time.

Choosing the best high temp Felt brand depends on a comprehensive consideration of heat resistance, product protection, delivery time, and price.
