What is fibreglass webbing?

Fibreglass webbing is a flat, tape-like product woven from high-strength glass fibres. It offers excellent tensile strength, heat resistance, and dimensional stability, making it ideal for reinforcement and insulation in various industrial and commercial applications.

Types of fibreglass webbing we offer:

1. Standard fibreglass webbing: For general reinforcement and insulation applications.
2. Heat-treated fibreglass webbing: Offering enhanced temperature resistance and stability.

Key features and benefits of fibreglass webbing

Our fibreglass webbing provides numerous advantages for demanding industrial and commercial applications:

1. High tensile strength: Offers excellent reinforcement capabilities without adding significant weight.
2. Temperature resistance: Withstands continuous exposure to high temperatures, typically up to 550°C.
3. Dimensional stability: Maintains its shape and properties under stress and temperature variations.
4. Chemical resistance: Inert to most chemicals, acids, and solvents.
5. Electrical insulation: Provides good dielectric properties for electrical applications.
6. Flexibility: Easily conforms to various shapes and contours.
7. Durability: Long-lasting performance in challenging environments.
