11.1 oz. E-glass fiber unidirectional reinforcing tape is used to add strength in one direction, but with less stiffness than carbon fiber. Easy to handle and wet out. Average tape thickness is .0125". 3" wide x 12', 50' rolls. |
| 727 Episize™ Biaxial Tape (click to view) |
17 oz. non-woven E glass fabric. Two layers at a 45 fiber orientation are held together by a light stitching. Flat, non-crimped fibers yield reduced print-through and higher stiffness than woven fabrics. Ideal for repairs, tabbing and reinforcing. 4" wide x 10', 20 yd. rolls. |
| 737 Episize™ Biaxial Fabric (click to view) |
17 oz. non-woven E glass fabric. Two layers, 45 fiber orientation. For composites, repairs and reinforcing. Achieves high fiber-to-resin ratio with hand wet-out. 50" wide x 20 yd. roll. |

Fabrics are ideal for building composite laminates and repairing fiberglass structures. May also be used to provide an abrasion-resistant covering for wooden structures. When wet-out, the 4 and 6 oz. fabrics become transparent, allowing a clear, natural wood finish. May be painted or varnished. 740 4 oz.- 50" wide x 10 yd., 20 yd. rolls. 742 6 oz.- 60" wide x 10 yd., 20 yd. rolls. 745 12 oz.- 30" x 30" sheet, 60" wide x 10 yd., 20 yd. rolls. |
