Flight Suit Coverall Fabric made with DuPont Nomex
INHERENTLYFR FABRICS
Military Flight Suit Fabric
Flight Suit Coverall Fabric, made with DuPont Nomex, provides inherent FR (flame resistant) protection and durability. Springfield uses jet spun yarns that reduce undesirable pilling caused by fabric abrasion.
Nomex Flight Suit Fabric is manufactured to military specification MIL-C-83429B using producer dyed fabric made from 92% Nomex fiber, 5% Kevlar fiber and 3% P-140 anti-static fiber.
Springfield fabrics are designed and manufactured to meet or exceed stringent military standards. Major military garment manufacturers trust Springfield to deliver fabric that is to spec, within budget and on time every time.

Prolonged sunlight and UV exposure can be damaging to the aramid fibers. Both natural and dyed aramid fibers will fade or change color with exposure to sunlight or other UV sources. The thermal performance is not affected, but long term or repeated exposures will cause the fiber to gradually weaken. Garments should be stored so that they are protected from sunlight to maximize wear life. Springfield LLC offers no warranties, implied or otherwise, for fabric damage or color change due to UV exposure.
Springfield LLC assumes no liability for the accuracy or completeness of the information contained herein. Users must satisfy themselves by independent investigation that the material can be used safely. We have described certain hazards, but cannot guarantee that these are the only hazards.
