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.
