Dry-wet spinning spinneret plates (also known as air-gap spinning nozzles or dry-jet wet spinning spinnerets) are precision-engineered components specifically designed for the unique requirements of the dry-wet spinning process. This advanced spinning method, developed in the 1960s, combines the advantages of both dry and wet spinning: the polymer solution is extruded through the spinneret, passes through an air gap (typically less than 30mm), and then enters a coagulation bath.

Our dry-wet spinning spinneret plates are engineered to meet the extreme demands of high-performance fiber production, including aramid (Kevlar®, Nomex®), high-strength PAN precursors for carbon fiber, PBI, PVA, and other super-high molecular weight polymers. These spinnerets enable the production of fibers with exceptional strength and modulus, utilizing larger orifice diameters (0.15-0.3mm) and achieving spinning speeds 5-10 times higher than conventional wet spinning (600-1,200 m/min).
