ENHANCED SERVICE LIFE

  • Excellent Processing

    • Features easy unwinding and excellent package run-out for uniform dispersion with low fuzz and static, which means less clean up and better machine efficiencies.




    • Fast wet-out and high resin pick-up equate to increased quality in the part's visual aspect after molding.

  • Multi-resin Compatibility

    • Designed for excellent adhesion with polyester, vinyl ester, and epoxy resin systems. Multi-compatibility allows a change in resin systems without the need for the time-consuming effort of changing glass in the creel.

  • Enhanced Service Life

    • Compared to standard E-glass, Advantex® glass helps with enhanced service life in applications facing corrosion.




    • Optimal placement of the reinforcement thanks to a zero-twist product design.

  • Applications

    P185 is suitable for use in the manufacturing of pressure vessels, and parts protecting against impact.

Each doff of P185 is protected by a polythene film, which should not be removed when it is used, identified by an individual label. P185 is available for internal and external unwinding with the use of inner cardboard tubes (75 mm internal diameter).

Each pallet can be packaged in bulk or Creel-Pak™ packaging format. Pallets are stretch wrapped for load stability and for protection during transport. All individual packages are wrapped with Tack-Pak™ packaging to aid package run-out and transfer. More information is available in the Customer Acceptance Standards.

Labeling

Each doff has a self-adhesive identification label showing the product description, net weight, and production date.

Each pallet has at least two identification labels detailing the product reference, pallet net and gross weights, production date, and pallet production code.

Storage

It is recommended to store glass fiber products in a cool, dry area. The glass fiber products must remain in their original packaging material until the point of usage; the product should be stored in the workshop, within its original packaging, 48 hours prior to its utilization, to allow it to reach the workshop temperature condition and prevent condensation, especially during cold season. The packaging is not waterproof. Be sure to protect the product from the weather and other sources of water. When stored properly, there is no known shelf life to the product, but retesting is advised after two years from the initial production date to ensure optimum performance.

    Regional Availability

    P185 is available in Europe.
