Patent ID: 7767599

Claim:
A cut resistant fabric, comprising a yarn comprising an intimate blend of staple fibers, the blend comprising: a) 20 to 50 parts by weight of a lubricating fiber; b) 20 to 40 parts by weight of a first aramid fiber having a linear density of from 3.3 to 6 denier per filament (3.7 to 6.7 dtex per filament); and c) 20 to 40 parts by weight of a second aramid fiber having a linear density of from 0.50 to 4.5 denier per filament (0.56 to 5.0 dtex per filament), based on 100 parts by weight of the fibers of a), b) and c); wherein the difference in filament linear density of the first aramid fiber to the second aramid fiber is 1 denier per filament (1.1 dtex per filament) or greater.
