3B Fibreglass DS 5163-13P

3B Fiberglass DS 5163-13P chopped strand is spe-cifically designed for excellent per-formances in injection and transfer molding processes & applications.The sizing coated at the glass fiber surface is engineered for enhanced compatibility with phenolic and epoxy resin systems.Thanks to its very light color, this product can be used in any natural grade compounds without impacting the color of the final part.An innovative manufacturing techno-logy provides DS5163-13P chopped strand with an excellent strand inte-grity and bulk density. As a result this product exhibits excellent feeding properties with very low fuzz generation.
