Product description
Square glass fabric 600 gr/m2 is a high-quality heavy fabric often used for building boats, surfboards, longboards, skis and much more. The fabric consists of two layers of unidirectional fibres: one along the length of the roll and one across the width. This provides excellent compressive and tensile strength.
The advantage of this square glass fabric is that it allows for a light, yet very stiff construction. Due to the tight fibre alignment, resin absorption is minimised, which improves efficiency and strength of the laminate. Square glass fabric offers a high flexural strength and results in a thickness of 0.78 mm after lamination and curing. The fabric is easy to laminate with epoxy, polyester and vinylester, with a resin absorption of approximately 495 gr/m2.
Square glass fabric is also available in a lighter variant: Square Glass Fabric 400 gr/m2.

Fabric or reinforcement type describes how the fibres are arranged. This affects how easily the material drapes over a shape and which directions it mainly reinforces.
- Plain weave (square weave): the yarns pass alternately over and under each other. The fabric is stable and works well on flat or gently curved surfaces.
- Twill weave: recognisable by its diagonal pattern. It is more flexible than plain weave and drapes more easily over curves.
- Unidirectional reinforcement (UD): the fibres run mainly in one direction, usually marked 0°. It provides reinforcement primarily along that direction.
- Multiaxial reinforcement: fibres are arranged in several directions, for example biaxial (+45°/-45°), Square (0°/90°) or triaxial (0°/+45°/-45°). Fibre bundles are normally held together by stitching rather than a conventional weave.
Note: a Square reinforcement (0°/90°) is not the same as a plain-woven square fabric. Also consider fibre type and areal weight (g/m²).

Areal weight is the weight of one square metre of dry reinforcement, expressed in g/m² (grams per square metre). For example, 200 g/m² glass fabric contains 200 grams of dry fibres per m², without resin. Areal weight helps with reinforcement selection and resin consumption estimates, but it is not the final laminate thickness.
