Warp glass cloth for use in high strength surfboard, paddleboard and sailboard construction.
Warp glass was developed in the early 1990's to be a more suitable fabric for the surf and sailboard industry. The count
per square inch in each direction of the cloth was re-distributed by adding more "picks" to the "warp" (lengthwise direction) and removing picks from the "fill" (sideways direction). The logic behind the weave being boards are longer than they are wide. These modified "warp" fabrics do not increase or decrease the weight of the material laminated to the board.
Fiberglass Hawaii also developed a re-aligned fabric in the mid 1980's (Style 1064) which is a combination of 6oz yarns in the "warp" and 4oz yarns in the "fill" which weighs 4.5 oz per square yard; a logical construction considering the need for nose-to-tail strength.
Fiberglass Hawaii's Warp Glass Cloth can be used in fiberglass surfboard construction and repair.
Application
Warp Cloth can be laminated with Fiberglass Hawaii resins applied with a brush, roller, or squeegee.
Uses
Although Warp Glass Cloth is ideally suited to surfboard lamination it can be used in all marine, and general purpose fiberglass work.
