An improved process for the production of ultralow denier, high-strength polybenzimidazole filaments is provided. A solution of the polymer is extruded vertically downward through a plurality of extrusion orifices into a gaseous atmosphere before being passed through a liquid coagulation bath. During their passage from the extrusion orifices to the exit from the coagulation bath, the filaments are drawn at an initial draw ratio of approximately 2:1 to 50:1. After being passed through the coagulaton bath, the filaments are washed, dried, and heat drawn at a heat draw ratio of approximately 1.5:1 to 10:1. The resulting filaments, having a denier per filament of approximately 0.05 to 0.50 and a tenacity of at least 4 grams per denier, are collected.
