Glass filament fabric with an areal weight of 80 g/m² in twill weave. Very good drapability, especially suitable for lightweight components. Low shear stability.

Glass filament fabric in twill weave 80 g/m² with silane sizing is predominantly used in model making for the processing of lightweight components with more complex geometries. While plain weave offers high shear stability, the twill weave type is characterized by excellent drapability.

The lightweight glass fabric can be processed with polyester resin and epoxy resin. We offer glass filament fabric 80 g/m² in twill weave with a width of 100 cm in freely selectable quantities from 1 m² to 100 m² as cost-effective folded or roll goods.

Characteristic of the twill weave is the weaving technique with diagonal lines formed by the sequence of warp and weft threads, whereby the warp-weft rows run less uniformly than in plain weave. Lightweight glass filament fabric 80 g/m² has excellent impregnation properties and ensures very good drapability.

The easily formable reinforcing fiber can be drawn particularly easily around radii or curvatures. Due to the higher glass fiber content compared with glass fiber mats, resin consumption is reduced. The silane coupling agent ensures optimal adhesion between glass fiber and synthetic resin.

Glass filament fabric with 80 g/m² in twill weave made from continuous E-glass fibers produces particularly excellent results for components with complex structures, especially in combination with epoxy resins. For multilayer processing, it is recommended to overlap the fabric layers by approximately 5 to 10 cm.

At Fiberglas-Discount you will find a wide selection of glass filament fabrics in twill weave for hobby applications and commercial purposes. When purchasing larger quantities, you benefit from attractive volume discounts.

Among twill weaves there are numerous variations; here we offer the K2/2 weave. Characteristic of twill weaves are the diagonal, parallel lines (twill rib) formed by the sequence of interlacing points (crossing points of warp and weft). Twill-woven fabrics, as with plain weave, can have two identical fabric faces. Due to the twill weave, forces occur in the fabric in the direction of the twill rib which, in the case of an unbalanced laminate structure, can lead to stresses up to the warping of laminates.

Glass filament fabric with an areal weight of 163 g/m² in twill weave. Very good drapability, especially suitable for light to medium components. Good compromise between drapability and shear stability.

We offer glass filament fabric 163 g/m² in twill weave in various package sizes for industry, trade, and private use.

The glass filament reinforcing fiber with silane finish meets all requirements in terms of laminate build-up and repair of complex components. The material is easy to process and highly drapable. In addition, the fabric exhibits high impregnation behavior with low resin consumption.

Glass filament fabric in twill weave can be recognized by its diagonal rib. This pattern results from the arrangement of warp and weft threads. Twill glass filament fabric is easily formable and vents quickly. Compromises only need to be made in terms of shear stability, which is better in plain weave fabrics. Therefore, it must be evaluated whether good drapability is required or whether the focus must be on shear stability.

For laminating lightweight components with pronounced three-dimensional structures, glass filament fabric in twill weave is a very suitable material. The glass filament fabric 163 g/m² in twill weave can be processed with both epoxy resin and polyester resin. Resin consumption is lower than with conventional glass fiber mats. For a laminate build-up of 0.15 mm, approximately 0.6 to 0.8 kg of synthetic resin per square meter is required.

Glass filament fabric with an areal weight of 280 g/m² in twill weave. Good drapability, especially suitable for medium-sized components. Good compromise between drapability and shear stability.

For laminating medium-sized components with complex shapes and geometries, the glass filament fabric 280 g/m² in twill weave is ideally suited. Compared to plain weave fabrics, this material provides significantly better drapability. The easily formable reinforcing fabric features a diagonally running rib, meaning more warp than weft threads are processed. The E-glass fibers used are heat-resistant and stable.

However, slight compromises must be made in terms of shear stability. If this property is required, glass filament fabric in plain weave should be selected. If you are unsure in this regard, simply contact us. We will be happy to advise you.

Compared directly with conventional glass fiber mats, resin consumption with twill glass filament fabric can be significantly reduced.

The best results are achieved in combination with epoxy resin. In principle, however, all other synthetic resins based on polyester resin can also be used.

For the glass filament fabric 280 g/m² in twill weave, both impregnation properties and surface stability are rated as very good. Fraying during cutting of the fabric is low. The fabric, finished with modified silane sizing, ensures good resin uptake into the fabric.

If you process multiple layers, ensure an overlap of the individual reinforcing fibers of approximately 5 to 10 centimeters.

Glass filament fabric with an areal weight of 163 g/m² in plain weave. Low drapability and high shear stability, especially suitable for medium-sized components with low structural complexity.

The glass filament fabric with an areal weight of 163 g/m² can be used in a wide range of applications. The filament fabric weighing 163 grams per square meter is particularly suitable for model making and boatbuilding, especially for components with strongly pronounced geometric structures. The glass fabric is used not only in industrial processing but also by tradespeople and even in hobby applications. Depending on the weave type, the fabric offers better drapability (twill weave) or higher shear stability (plain weave). With plain weave, you achieve high shear stability because the warp yarns are interlaced alternately with the crossing weft yarns. The resulting pattern resembles a checkerboard structure.

Due to the interwoven structure, glass filament fabrics have a wavy surface, referred to as ondulation. This is noticeable during draping, which is somewhat more difficult than with twill weave. However, plain weave provides very high structural strength. The glass fiber content is also higher than in glass fiber mats, which simplifies processing and reduces costs, as less polyester resin or epoxy resin is required. Both polyester resin and epoxy resin can be used. These savings offset the slightly higher cost of glass filament fabrics and make working with the composite material more efficient. The weight specification of 163 grams refers to one square meter.
