Chopped Strand Mat

Product Details:

Chopped Strand Mat (CSM) is a random fiber mat that provides equal strength in all directions and is used in a variety of hand lay-up and open mold applications. Chopped strand mat is produced by chopping continuous strand roving into short 1.5 to 3 inch lengths and dispersing the cut fibers randomly over a moving belt to form a “sheet” of random fiber mat. A binder is applied to hold the fibers together and the mat is trimmed and rolled. Because of is random fiber orientation, chopped strand mat conforms easily to complex shapes when wet-out with polyester or vinyl ester resins. Chopped strand mats are available as a roll stock product produced in a variety of weights and widths to suit specific applications

AR-Glass Chopped Strand (AR stand for Alkali-resistant), which is a reinforcement material of glass fiber reinforced concrete (GRC), is 100% inorganic fiber and is an ideal substitute for steel and asbestos in non-load-bearing cement components. AR-Glass Chopped Strand is characterized by good alkali resistance, can effectively resist the erosion of high alkali material in cement, strong grip, elastic modulus, impact resistance, tensile strength, high bending strength, noncombustible, frost resistance, temperature resistance, Strong ability to change humidity, good resistance to cracking and impermeability, strong designability and easy forming, etc. AR-Glass Chopped Strand is a new type of green enhanced widely used in high performance reinforced concrete material.
