Pultrusion Process

 

Glass Fiber Forms


Fibers are formed from several glass compositions, the most common of which are C (Chemical), E (Electrical), E-CR (boron free E-glass) and S (strength). Continuous roving of the E-Glass type comprises the bulk of the reinforcement used in pultrusion. Continuous roving is a collection of filaments coated with a sizing that is compatibly with the resin system and brought together into a single strand called an end, or multiple strands, and then wound into a cylindrical supply package.
