Assembled roving, also known as multi-end roving or panel roving, is a type of fiberglass roving created by joining multiple single-end strands together without twisting, often used in thermoset composite applications like truck panels, pipes, and more.
Applications
- Thermoset Composites: Used in the production of thermoset laminates, particularly for truck panels and other applications requiring chopped and randomly oriented fiberglass.
- Pultrusion: Suitable for filament winding, pultrusion, and processing into woven fabrics, UD tapes, multiaxial fabrics, and prepregs.
- Chopped Strand Mat: Can be used to produce chopped strand mats, where the roving is chopped to a specific length and combined with a binder.
- Spray-up: Used in spray-up applications, where the roving is chopped and sprayed with resin onto a mold.
- Thermoplastic Reinforcement: Can be used to reinforce thermoplastics like PA, PBT, PET, PP, ABS, AS, and PC.
