Epoxy Compatible Roving 408 SERIES

408 SERIES single endrovingconsists of continuous E-CR* glass fibers manufactured by the direct draw process. The roving istreated with a silane sizing system for excellent performance with epoxy & p henol ic res in sys temsused in Weaving, Knitting,Filament Winding and Pultrusion.

408 SERIESroving is the reinforcement of choice for high performance corrosion resistant resin systems.

408 SERIESroving is designed to: PRODUCTS AVA ILABLE Display fast wet-out without glint Provide optimum unwind performance from creels without balling Run freely through mechanically guided roving systems Exhibit superior resistance to tangling, fuzz and static electricity Minimize fiber-working degradation Demonstrate even tensioning and superior tracking through guides Develop fast buildup and uniform packing of tubular products Optimize strength properties and laminate stiffness in composite matrices

*Fiberex manufactures all its rovings using the E-CR glass formulation. E-CR is boron free and contains no ingredients that are harmful to the environment. E-CR can be used wherever E glass is used....itprovides for higher tensile strength, superior corrosion resistance, higher softening temperature and superior electrical properties. E-CR is the preferred choice for corrosion and electrical applications and maybe desirable where certain higher temperature properties are needed.
