The CTech-LLC® Glass Wrap is high strength glass fabric designed for structural reinforcement applications as part of the CTech-LLC® FRP strengthening system. A wide range of uni-directional and bi-directional E-Glass fabrics in different weights are available and can be used where a structural element looses its capacity/design strength due to corrosion or cracks, change in use and / or the design code demands higher load carrying capacity.
UGW™: High strength unidirectional glass wrap with fibers oriented in the 0° direction weighing 200, 400, 600, 800 and 1200 g per m².
BGW™: High strength Bidirectional glass wrap with fibers oriented in the 0° and 90° directions weighing 200, 400, 600, 900 and 1200 g per m².
Key Features
- Lightweight, flexible, high-strength fiber can be used in different surfaces like circular columns and other arched surfaces.
- Chemical and corrosion resistant.
- With excellent electrical and thermal insulation properties, fibers can be used as a suitable material in electrical equipment.
- Compatible with different materials and standard adhesive resins.
- Easy to impregnate using wet or dry lay-up methods.
- Low aesthetic impact.
- UGW™ glass fibers are available in different types and can be used depending on your needs. For example, S-glass is used when tensile strength is important and E-glass is useful in Electrical application.
Applications
- Seismic retrofit and strengthening of masonry elements.
- Confinement of repaired elements.
- Additional protection from environmental conditions.
- Insulation barrier between exposed steel and carbon fiber.
Storage Conditions
