Nomex filter bags are the gold standard for high-temperature industrial filtration, withstanding continuous heat up to 204°C (400°F) and intermittent peaks of 260°C (500°F). Unlike standard polyester or acrylic bags, Nomex offers:
Exceptional thermal stability – Resists oxidation and thermal degradation.
Longer lifespan – Lasts 12–24 months in harsh conditions.
Static resistance – Optional anti-static treatment for explosive environments.
Did You Know? Over 70% of Saudi Arabia’s cement plants rely on Nomex filter bags to comply with stringent emission standards (Source: Saudi Industrial Development Authority).

2. Temperature & Chemical Limits
-
Dry Heat: Stable up to 204°C (prolonged exposure above 220°C causes oxidation).
-
Wet Heat: Max 120°C (steam reduces lifespan by 30–50%).
-
Chemicals: Avoid strong acids (pH <3) and bases (pH >11). For harsher conditions, PPS filter bags are recommended.
Industries That Rely on Nomex Filter Bags
1. Power Generation
-
Filters coal-fired boiler emissions in Saudi power plants.
-
Case Study: A Riyadh-based plant increased bag lifespan by 40% after switching to Aero Filter’s Nomex bags.
2. Steel Mills
-
Handles blast furnace exhaust (up to 200°C).
3. Cement Plants
-
Captures kiln dust in harsh alkaline environments.
4. Waste Incineration
-
Filters flue gases with high particulate loads.

How long do Nomex filter bags last?
Typically 12–24 months, depending on:
-
Operating temperature (higher heat = shorter lifespan).
-
Cleaning frequency (pulse-jet systems extend durability).
Can Nomex handle acidic gases?
Only mild acids (pH 5–9). For harsh conditions, pair with PPS filter bags or consult Aero Filter’s engineers for hybrid solutions.
What is the temperature of Nomex filter bags?
Nomex filter bags handle:
-
Continuous heat: Up to 204°C (400°F)
-
Short-term peaks: 260°C (500°F) (for intermittent exposure)
Note: Steam or wet environments reduce the max temperature to 120°C.
What is Nomex filter also known as?
Nomex is the DuPont™ brand name for meta-aramid synthetic fiber. It’s also called:
-
Meta-aramid filter bags
-
Heat-resistant aramid bags
-
Flame-retardant filtration fabric
