For applications requiring longer flex life, higher tensile strength or higher shock loading please view high tensile strength cord.

Rubber impregnated Glass Cord prevents stretching of extruded rubber profiles, reducing wastage during manufacture, and ensuring improved sealing in automotive and building applications.Glass Cord is used to reinforce rubber hose and cable coverings. It can also be used to reinforce fillers in electrical cables.

Glass Cord reinforcement gives improved heat dissipation, greater tensile strength, increased tread life and a smoother ride when woven into a fabric, or used on its own, In high performance pneumatic tyres.

Fabrics woven with Glass Cord give dimensional stability to complex moulded products, such as escalator handrails. The excellent adhesive quality of rubber impregnated glass fabric gives added strength to the handrail composites, preventing delamination and damage in use. Woven fabrics including Glass Cord are also used in dryer felts and conveyor belts.

When used in composite friction facings, glass yarns with added rubber treatment improve adhesion within the matrix, and give wear resistance and longer life to vehicle clutches and brakes.

Used as bristles for industrial brushes, the abrasive quality of cut Glass Cord will burnish metal without scratching. Good chemical resistance of the glass also enables the application of acidic flux to metals.

Rubber Impregnated Chopped Strand (RICS) strengthen solid rubber tyres, preventing chipping when used on rugged terrain.
