Product catalog summary

Introduction
HexShield™ is a heat-resistant material designed for high-temperature applications, particularly in aircraft engine nacelles. It combines the structural benefits of honeycomb materials with enhanced thermal resistance and formability.

Specifications
HexShield™ technology builds on Hexcel's history with heat-resistant honeycomb products, specifically the HexWeb® HHS-327 honeycomb, which withstands temperatures up to 260°C/500°F. The material can be customized with various facing materials to meet specific customer needs.

Product Variants
Two compositions have been developed: HexShield™ 450, suitable for 450°F conditions, and HexShield™ 600, suitable for 600°F conditions. Initial customer qualification panels have been successfully completed.
