PRODUCT DATA
E'Glass Needlemat
Construction:
Saveguard E’glass needlemat is manufactured from 9 micron filament E’glass fibres that are specially carded to produce a high volume batt. This is then mechanically needled to bond the fibres, which results in a dimensionally stable matt or felt possessing excellent insulating properties without any chemical binder. Saveguard needlemat is soft, drapable, easily cut, ideally suited for die-cut components and can be foil laminated.
NB. We also offer a complete cutting and die cutting service
Properties:
|
E'Glass fibres have a minimal amount of surface dressing that is required to assist in processing, this is usually organic ie. starch or silane and will disappear at temperatures above 200O C. E'Glass Needlemats are suitable for continuous use at temperatures up to 550O C however tensile strength continues to reduce noticeably as temperatures increase above 400O C. |

|
E'Glass fibres: |
are resistant to most oils, solvents and chemicals except Phosphoric, Hydrofluoric acids, although contact with strong alkalis and live steam should be avoided. |
|
are non combustible. |
