At a glance
- For epoxy and polyester
- Pliable glass fabric
- Approx. 0.45 mm layer thickness
Product description
Twill fabric is a specially woven glass fabric, perfect for laminating round shapes. At Polyestershoppen this fabric is available in weights of 160 gr/m2 and 280 gr/m2. The heavier the fabric, the higher the layer thickness and the heavier and stronger the end product.
Due to the higher weight, it can be difficult to laminate this fabric in complex shapes. Therefore, it can be wise to use multiple thin layers instead of one thick layer.
Due to the high weight of this fabric, it can be difficult to laminate the fabric in complex shapes. Therefore, it can be wiser to laminate multiple thin layers of fabric instead of one thick layer. This twill weave has a weight of 280 gr/m2, is 100 cm wide and can be processed with polyester resin, vinylester resin and epoxy resin.

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.
