Features & Benefits
- Ready-to-Use Product Features
- Product Highlights
- This glass fiber reinforcing mesh, unlike competitive cotton, plastic or glass-treated products, has extremely high tensile strength and provides dimensional stability.
- It is resistant to most acids and alkalis and will not burn, rot, mildew or decay.
- This glass fiber reinforcing mesh is easier to apply and fabricate when compared to competitive materials.
- It may be cut with a knife or scissors and is easily handled.
- This glass fiber reinforcing mesh is flexible and can be readily flashed to adjoining surfaces.
- As a result of its open-weave structure, this glass fiber reinforcing mesh allows for complete penetration of the coating.
- It is exceptionally strong, and may be anchored onto welded pins or clips or tied into tie-wires to give direct mechanical tie-in to the structure supporting the insulation.
- It assumes the contour of that to which it is applied.
- This glass fiber reinforcing mesh is more economical than stainless steel or monel wire and will lie flat on the surface, unlike hex wire.
- Product Highlights
It is incombustible and will not contribute to flame spread or smoke development.
Applications & Uses
- Markets
- Application Area
- Recommended Applications
- This glass fiber reinforcing mesh is normally used when applying a heavily-bodied, high-solids coating to protect large surfaces or in areas susceptible to mechanical abuse.
- Insulated tanks, spheres and precipitators are prime examples of objects requiring treatment with this product.
- This is an excellent, glass fiber reinforcing mesh for all-around use.
- It is normally used when applying a high solids content coating to small surfaces such as fittings.
- This glass fiber reinforcing mesh is also used when a low solids content coating is applied over large insulated surfaces, such as tanks or spheres.
