Glass Fiber Mats Technical Data Sheet (TDS)
Glass fiber mats are non-woven reinforcement materials composed of randomly oriented chopped strands or continuous filaments. They are primarily used in FRP (fiber-reinforced plastic) processes, including hand lay-up, pultrusion, and compression molding, offering excellent resin compatibility, formability, and mechanical reinforcement.

Features & Advantages
- Uniform fiber distribution for consistent mechanical properties
- Fast wet-out and good resin penetration for increased production efficiency
- High tensile strength and dimensional stability
- Excellent formability around complex contours
- Low fuzz and dust for cleaner working conditions
- Chemical resistance to acids, alkalis, and organic solvents (especially for C-glass mats)
Typical Applications
- Hand lay-up and spray-up FRP manufacturing
- Boat hulls, water tanks, bathware, automotive panels
- Pultrusion profiles (SBM, Combo Mat)
- Pipe wrap and laminated sheet production
- Molded parts in construction, marine, and transportation industries
- Electrical insulation in transformers and switchgears (CFM)
Handling & Storage
- Store in a dry, clean, and well-ventilated warehouse
- Keep away from direct sunlight and moisture
- Recommended storage temperature: 15–35°C, humidity < 65%
- Rolls should be kept vertically or laid flat with no stacking over 2 layers
Quality Control
All mats are subjected to strict quality inspection including:
- Area weight and thickness verification
- Tensile and peel strength testing
- Binder and moisture content analysis
- Visual inspection for uniformity, defects, and contamination
