PE6841 Glass Fibre Cloth (Electronic Grade)

Fibreglass Cloth Description

Fibreglass Cloth is a woven fabric manufactured from fibreglass fibres. The fibres are derived from fine strands of glass and woven into a stable cloth. It is light in weight. It provides high tensile performance and maintains its form at temperatures up to 288°C (550°F). It resists fire, heat and many chemicals. Consequently, it is used in a range of industrial and commercial applications.

Key Properties of Fibreglass Cloth:

·      High Tensile Strength: The cloth provides high tensile strength as quantified by standard tests.

·      Heat Resistance: The material withstands temperatures up to 288°C (550°F) without structural decline.

·      Chemical Stability: It resists acids, alkalis and solvents as shown by controlled exposure tests.

·      Light Weight: The material weighs considerably less than traditional reinforcement metals.

·      Electrical Insulation: The cloth is non-conductive and meets standard electrical insulation criteria.

·      Durability: It is resistant to abrasion, decay and mould in accelerated ageing tests.

Fibreglass Cloth Applications

·      Insulation: It is used in thermal and electrical insulation products for construction, power generation and electronics.

·      Marine Industry: It reinforces boat hulls, decks and other components. The material sustains a light structural profile.

·      Fire-Resistant Clothing: It is employed in the manufacture of protective clothing. This includes fire service suits that have met safety test criteria.

·      Automotive Parts: It is used to produce parts such as body panels and hoods that satisfy structural testing.

·      Pipe Wrapping: It is applied to pipes to provide insulation and to protect against heat and corrosion under high-temperature conditions.

·      Aerospace and Aviation: It is utilised in aircraft panels and insulation components where high strength and reduced weight are required.

·      Industrial Applications: It is incorporated in equipment such as tanks, ducts and pressure vessels in corrosive environments.
