High-Strength Solutions to Your Toughest Reinforcement Challenges AGY’s S-2 Glass high-strength fibers are specifically designed to meet your most demanding performance, processing and cost requirements. AGY’s global network of people and facilities stands ready to help you develop innovative solutions to your most difficult reinforcement challenges. Resin Compatibility • Epoxy • Urethane • Phenolic • Polyamide Processes • Compound molding • Injection molding • Ceramic casting Product Application AGY’s 401 S-2 Glass chopped strands are designed to be used for highperformance polymer composites as well as ceramic and metal matrix composites in construction, appliance and recreation applications such as: • Bathroom fixtures • Stove element insulation Product Solutions High-performance S-2 Glass fibers offer a unique combination of properties: strength, impact resistance, stiffness, temperature resistance, fatigue resistance and radar transparency. Compared with other reinforcing materials, S-2 Glass fibers weigh less than conventional glass fiber and deliver better cost performance than aramid and carbon. In addition, they meet stringent military requirements. Product Description 401 S-2 Glass chopped strands consist of numerous E- to K-filament (7-13 micron) continuous glass fibers cut into short pieces of consistent length. Standard length: 6.4 mm (1/4 in.).
