Glass fabric 200 gr/m2 (square)
- For epoxy and polyester
- Very low resin absorption
- Does not crease, smooth finish
Glass fabric 200 g/m2 is the most commonly used type of glass fabric and offers high tensile strength. Due to the structure of the universal fabric, this type of glass fabric has a higher tensile strength compared to glass fibre mats (CSM). In addition, glass tissue absorbs significantly less resin. This results in a light and solid construction.
The resin absorption is about one and a half times the total weight. So with glass fabric 200 gr/m2 you need around 300 grams of resin per square metre. The square fabric is excellent for use with both polyester resin and epoxy resin. Use a velor roller to apply the resin to the glass fabric.
Product features Glass fabric 200 gr/m2
- Most commonly used glass fabric.
- Lower resin absorption than glass fiber mat (lightweight result).
- Suitable for straight surfaces.
- Fabric does not crease.
- High tensile strength.
- Available in 80 gr/m2 and 200 gr/m2.
Applications
Glass fabric 200 grams is often used for cladding wooden objects, such as plywood. In addition, you can also use this type of fabric for waterproofing wet rooms. Due to the way the fabric is woven, glass fabric is particularly suitable for straight surfaces. As a result, the square weave does not crease and can be tightly laminated.
