Wetsuits , Life Jackets & Sailing Clothing
Why is a Titanium wetsuit warmer?
Titanium lined neoprene is coated with a super thin film of Titanium Alloy.
This dramatically increases the heat insulation and heat retaining properties of
neoprene. It works by retaining more body heat within
the suit, and providing a more effective barrier between the cold outside water
and air temperatures. Double lined neoprene with
Titanium Alloy is 40% warmer than the same thickness regular neoprene. The
stretchability, feeling and wear comfort remain the same as regular neoprene.
This makes it possible to use a reduced
thickness of neoprene, for instance, 3 mm in lieu of 5 mm, obtaining the same
thermal protection. Titanium suits are lighter weight,
with more warmth, comfort and ease of movement, benefiting the user with greater
comfort and flexibility and less fatigue. Titanium
lining sets new standards in insulating the wearer against the cold outside
water and retaining the warm body temperature.
