Q: What is filament winding?
A: Process for fabricating a composite structure in which continuous reinforcements are coated with resin and placed over a rotating form. Q: What is fiberglass? A: An individual filament made by drawing molten glass. Q: What is carbon fiber? A: An important reinforcing fiber known for its light weight, high strength and high stiffness. Q: What is E-glass? A: "Electrical glass", the borosilicate glass most often used as glass fibers in filament winding. Q: What is S-glass? A: Structural glass: used as a reinforcement, designed to provide very high tensile strength. Q: What is a mandrel? A: A male mold used in the production of a part by filament winding. Q: What is epoxy resin? A: The material used to bind together the reinforcement material; the matrix. Q: What is fiber? A: Single homogeneous strand of material, used in composites for high axial strength and modulus. Q: What are filaments? A: Individual fibers of indefinite length used in tows, yarn, or roving. Q: What is a tow? A: An untwisted bundle of continuous filaments. Q: What is composite material? A: Combination of two of more materials (reinforcing elements, fillers and matrix binder) differing in form or composition on a macro-scale. Q: What is the operating temperature of Black Amalgon tubing? A: 250 degree F / -50 Degree F |
