Weaving Standards

Aerospace webbing and tapes: weaving standards and equivalents

Aerospace webbing and tapes must combine mechanical strength, dimensional stability and durability in demanding environments. Depending on the application—restraint, harnesses, equipment retention, cable protection or identification—Sealicone supplies woven products compliant with AIR, MIL, CAP and FCP references, with traceability and material certification.

Main standard families covered

• AIR 9205: tapes and webbings from the Rxxx series (for example AIR9205R222, R343 and R440), with defined widths, strength levels and finishes suitable for aerospace integration.
• MIL: a broad range of US military specifications for technical woven products:
  • MIL-T / MIL-DTL: technical tapes and webbings such as MIL-T-5038, MIL-T-5666 and MIL-DTL-24677, covering weave structure, yarn count and strength.
  • MIL-W: woven webbings such as MIL-W-4088, MIL-W-5625, MIL-W-5664, MIL-W-5665, MIL-W-17337, MIL-W-23223 and MIL-W-44049, with defined requirements for weave, breaking strength and elongation.
  • MIL-C: braided or woven cords and tapes such as MIL-C-1145, MIL-C-3395, MIL-C-5040, MIL-C-43307 and MIL-C-87129 for parachute, securing and lacing applications.
  • MIL-B / MIL-R / MIL-H / MIL-L: complementary families covering specific requirements including cotton products, braids, restraint tapes, sleeves and finishing treatments.
• CAP & FCP: industrial references such as CAP D R707 and FCP 0522 used by several customers to maintain fleet and MRO compatibility.
• NSN (NATO Stock Number): many references have an NSN such as 8305-00-xxx-xxxx for fast logistical identification.

Materials and performance

Depending on the applicable standard and required performance level, our webbing and tapes are manufactured from polyester, polyamide or aramid, with optional treatments for abrasion, moisture and fraying. Key characteristics include breaking strength, elongation, resistance to aerospace fluids and thermal stability.

• Strict compliance with original specifications for dimensions, weave and finishes.
• Full traceability and quality documentation available on request.
• Broad availability across AIR / MIL / CAP / FCP / NSN references.
