Product type
Glass fiber is a lightweight, strong, and durable material made from fine strands of glass. It is produced through a process of melting glass and then drawing it into fibers, which can be woven into fabrics or used in composite materials. Glass fiber is known for its high tensile strength and resistance to corrosion, making it an ideal choice for various industrial applications.
| Material | E-glass or S-glass |
| Diameter | 5 to 25 microns |
| Tensile strength | 2000 to 4000 MPa |
| Density | 2.5 g/cm³ |
| Thermal resistance | Up to 550°C |
When selecting glass fiber, consider the type of glass (E-glass for standard applications or S-glass for higher strength), the diameter of the fibers, and the specific tensile strength required for your application. It's also important to specify the quantity needed and any relevant certifications, such as ISO standards, if applicable.
