Product Description
758 ZenTron roving consists of
numerous L- or T-filament (14 or 25
micron) continuous glass strands,
gathered without mechanical twist
in a single bundle and treated with
an epoxy-compatible sizing.
Features Benefits
Efficient processing ZenTron fiber has a catenary-free,
single-end roving which can translate
into more efficient processing for
composites that are pultruded, filament
wound or molded from fabrics and
braids. This results in a more uniform
fiber alignment than traditional multi-end
rovings.
Easier hybridization The single-end construction makes
it easier to hybridize with aramids and
carbon tows.
Quick wet-out Designed to optimize wet-out in epoxy
“kiss roll” and resin bath processes.
Wets out at least 50% faster than
conventional multi-end rovings.
Low fuzz Minimal fiber breakage can reduce fuzz
during handling.
