In contrast to 2×2 twill weave fabric, the 3×1 twill weave fibreglass material ensures significantly better drapability. The easily formable reinforcing fabric has a diagonal ridge. The E-glass fibres used are heat resistant and stable.
This weave is more pliable than plain and 2×2 twill weave and improves the folding, hanging and draping capacity allowing better coverage over curved surfaces as well as strength-to-weight ratio, making it the best choice for usage in situations where both high strength and light weight are essential.
Fibreglass is the standard glass fabric used in light aircraft applications. It is also widely used for making moulds, providing structure behind the finer weave surface fabrics. Perfect for model building, Aviation, boat building, surfboards, kayaks etc.
