Enhanced Service Life Icon

Enhanced Service Life

  • Lightweighting

    • 9% weight reduction by reducing LFTP part thickness – ideal for
    automotive lightweighting.




    • 2.5% potential weight reduction in LFTP compound.

  • Superior Glass Dispersion/Increased Part Strength

    • Outstanding compatibility with Polyolefins, enabling better wet-out, uniform glass dispersion, and potential higher glass loading.




    • Optimized adhesion to the polymer matrix, offering excellent mechanical properties to meet stringent end-use requirement.

  • Enhanced Service Life

    • Like Advantex® glass, HP glass helps fight corrosion, enhancing service life compared to standard E-Glass.

Applications

SE4805 HP is an advanced member of the Type 30™ roving family and specially designed for polypropylene long-fiber thermoplastic applications with LFT-G (pultrusion), D-LFT, and CFRT (Continuous Fiber Reinforced Thermoplastics), for the manufacturing of structural and semi-structural automotive applications, including front-end modules, seat carriers, and door modules, as well as a variety of consumer goods, appliances, and power tools. SE4805 HP is also optimized for use in CFRT (Continuous Fiber Reinforced Plastic) tapes for structural applications where the performance characteristics of a continuous unidirectional glass reinforcement can significantly improve end-use performance.

Packaging

Rovings are available in 20 kg single end, internal pull. Pallet dimensions 16x4 rovings. Pallets are stretch-wrapped for load stability. Pallets are available in bulk pallet packaging format, and are manufactured in India for export globally.

Labeling

Each individual package is labeled with information including product name, tex/yield, producing plant, and production date.

Storage

Unless otherwise specified, 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 in its original packaging for 48 hours prior to its utilization, to allow it to reach the workshop temperature condition and prevent condensation, especially during the 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 three years from the initial production date to ensure optimum performance.

ISO Standards

SE4805 single-end roving is manufactured in conformity with the following standards: ISO 2797, NF B38151 and DIN 61855.
