Airtech Breathers & Bleeders
Airtech offers several lines of breather and bleeders for the construction of composites.
AIRWEAVE
Polyester breathers in various deniers and weights to channel air under a vacuum bag in an oven or autoclave. Airweave® products have good elongation and protect vacuum bags in sharp radius areas. Slitting master rolls to various widths is available. Most can be made in a fire retardant version.
ULTRAWEAVE
Nylon breathers for maximum airflow under a vacuum bag in the autoclave. Nylon breathers do not soften, like polyester, which starts to restrict airflow at 250°F (120°C). Various deniers and weights are available, and may be slit to any width. All Ultraweave® products are fire retardant.
ECONOWEAVE
Inexpensive, recycled polyester breather for room temperature and elevated temperature cures. These breathers are not made to advanced composites standards, but are designed to be cost effective for use in the marine, automotive and general composites industries.
