Provided is a heat-resistant fabric made of a meta-type wholly aromatic polyamide fiber, characterized in that the abrasion resistance of the heat-resistant fabric in accordance with the JIS L1096 8.19.1 A-1 method (universal type method (plane method), abrasion tester press load: 4.45 N (0.454 kf), paper: #600) is 200 rubs or more, the tear strength of the heat-resistant fabric in accordance with the JIS L1096 8.17.4 D method (pendulum method) is 20 N or more, and the retention of the abrasion resistance and the retention of the tear strength after 100 washes in accordance with JIS L0844 No. A-1 are each 90% or more relative to before washing. As a result, the provided heat-resistant fabric can be dyed to a color chosen from a wide range of color options and is capable of maintaining high mechanical characteristics over time/age even after repeated uses or washes, etc. |
