Product Introduction
W1-A E-glass Woven Rovings are composed of direct rovings woven into a fabric. The input rovings are designed to give rapid wet-out and excellent laminate properties. The construction gives bi-directional (0°/90°) reinforcement and the strength of continuous filaments. The type of construction confers to the fabric an excellent dimensional stability during handling. W1-A is ideal for hand and machine production of boats, containers, aircraft and automotive parts, home furnishings, sports equipment, corrosion-resistant tanks, translucent panels, and other parts with large areas.

Product Description
All W1-A Woven Rovings are manufactured to meet ISO 9001 standards. These products have obtained the quality certification of Norway Boat code. W1-A is designed to be compatible with most resins and is widely used in a multitude of applications.

Packaging
W1-A Woven Roving is wound into a roll on a cardboard inner tube with an inside diameter of 8cm (3.1"). All densities are 23cm (9") in diameter. Each roll is wrapped with a plastic bag and placed in a cardboard box. 12 or 16 boxes are placed horizontally on a pallet, which is stretch wrapped.

Storage
Unless otherwise specified, it is recommended to store glass fiber products in a cool, dry area. Temperature should not exceed 35°C (95°F) and the relative humidity should be kept below 75%. Glass roving products must remain in packaging material until just prior to their use. If these conditions are respected, the glass fiber product should not undergo significant changes when stored for extended periods of time.

Stacking
To ensure safety and avoid damage to the product, skids should not be stacked more than two high.

Customer Benefits

  • Advantages in reducing costs and contributing to end-product quality
  • Uniform weight and construction minimize the potential for air entrapment and weak areas in the laminate. This helps produce stronger, smoother parts
  • Drapes well, lays easily on radii and corners, and conforms easily to intricate shapes and patterns
  • Reduce fabrication time
  • Wets out faster and more evenly to accelerate rolling and brushing
