Why choose fiberglass reinforcement for fiberglass?
Among reinforcement materials, fiberglass fabric is still the most commonly used reinforcement material in the fiberglass industry today. Usually, they are the cheapest among reinforcement materials and are easy to handle. When used in combination with resin, it can provide composite components with excellent strength, low weight, and excellent appearance.
Manufacturers choose fiberglass because:
It provides a fast and economical way to manufacture parts and molds, as well as perform repairs.
It is easy to handle, and you can rely on consistent processing features time and time again.
It conforms to complex shapes and can withstand harsh environmental conditions.
All fiberglass fabrics are woven according to fiber orientation, and each fabric has its own unique weight, strength, and fabric characteristics that should be considered before starting any project.
In fact, it is also widely used for these reasons. You may also often hear people mention their fiberglass boats or fiberglass bathtubs, but in reality, these products are not just fiberglass, but are made by composite with resin.
Glass fiber is usually the cheapest, making it the best choice for most composite components to enhance polyester resin. But please remember that the price will also vary depending on your choice.
Glass fiber is the fundamental material in the composite material industry, and it is usually the best multi-purpose choice among reinforcements for manufacturing composite parts with excellent strength, low weight, and dimensional stability.
