Product description
Glass fibre fabric is a reinforcement material made of finely woven glass fibres. Thanks to the square (plain) weave structure, this glass fibre fabric has a higher tensile strength than fibreglass chopped strand mats (CSM) and absorbs less resin. This creates a lighter and stronger construction.
Glass fibre fabric works excellently with polyester resin, vinylester resin and epoxy resin.
Glass fibre fabric (plain) is also available as twill fabric. These fabrics look similar, but have important differences. For example, twill fabric is foldable and therefore suitable for round surfaces. Plain glass fibre fabric is very suitable for straight surfaces.
Features Glass fibre fabric 80 gr/m² (plain)
- Lower resin absorption than glass fibre 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 fibre fabric is often used to reinforce wooden objects, such as plywood. In addition, this type of fabric is also suited for waterproofing wet areas. Due to the square weave structure, glass fibre fabric is particularly suited for straight surfaces. It can be laminated tightly and does not crease.
