These fabrics are made from S-glass, which is a high-strength and high-modulus glass fiber. It is superior to E-glass, which is the most common glass fiber, in terms of tensile strength, modulus, and temperature resistance. Multi-Axial S-glass fabrics have multiple layers of fibers oriented at different angles, which are stitched or bonded together. This multi-directional reinforcement provides enhanced strength and stiffness in various directions, making it ideal for applications requiring improved impact resistance and durability.
Feature:
- High Strength and Lightweight:
S-glass fibers have excellent tensile strength and are lighter than
traditional E-glass, making them ideal for applications requiring
both strength and weight reduction.
- High Stiffness:
The high modulus of S-glass provides greater resistance to
bending and deformation, suitable for structural applications.
- Multi-Directional Reinforcement:
The multi-axial fabric structure distributes fibers in various
directions, offering uniform load-bearing capacity and resistance to
multi-directional stresses.
- Excellent Impact and Fatigue Resistance:
The fabric is highly resistant to impact and fatigue, making it ideal for high-strength environments such as aerospace and automotive applications.
- Corrosion Resistance:
S-glass exhibits excellent resistance to moisture and chemicals, ensuring durability in harsh environments.
Application:
- High-performance sporting goods:
Surfboards, hockey sticks, racing shells
- Military and defense applications:
Ballistic armor, helmets
- Aerospace components:
Aircraft structural parts, panels
- Marine applications:
Boat hulls, masts where high strength and impact resistance are criticalMulti-Axial S-glass Fiber Fabric
