M8643
BRINGING PERFORMANCE IN DEMANDING PULTRUSION APPLICATIONS
Specifications and Literature
Performance Attributes
Very good Surface Aspect
Corrosion Resistance
- Increased ProductivityHigh tensile strength makes the product ideal for fast pultrusion speed and most challenging profiles.
- Very good surface aspectUniform glass distribution combined with fast wet-through and good wet-out enable pultruded profiles with very good surface aspect.
- Corrosion resistanceExcellent corrosion resistance with Advantex® Glass compared to standard E-glass, providing longer service life in applications facing corrosion.

| NOMINAL MAT WEIGHT (G/M2) | NOMINAL MAT WEIGHT (OZ/FT2) | ROLL WIDTH (CM) | ROLL WIDTH (IN) |
|---|---|---|---|
| 300 - 450 - 600 - 900 | 1 - 1.5 - 2 - 3 | 127 - 172.7 - 182.9 - 213.4 | 50 - 68 - 72 - 84 |
Packaging & Labeling
Each roll is wound on a 101.6 mm (4”) inside diameter paper tube, fully enclosed in Creel-Pak™ wrap, positioned vertically on each pallet, and Cling-Pak™ wrapped. To allow 100% traceability once the roll is slit, information is printed onto the wrapping film and the core paper tube.
Each roll bears a label detailing the product description, product code, nominal weight, roll width, roll number, and date of manufacture.

| >106.7 | >42 | 55 | 21.5 | 6 | 167.6 x 111.8 | 66 x 44 |
Storage
It is recommended to store glass fiber products in a cool, dry area. The glass fiber products must remain in their original packaging material until the point of usage; the product should be stored in the workshop, within its original packaging, 48 hours prior to its utilization, to allow it to reach the workshop temperature condition and prevent condensation, especially during cold season. The packaging is not waterproof. Be sure to protect the product from the weather and other sources of water. When stored properly, there is no known shelf life to the product, but retesting is advised after two years from the initial production date to insure optimum performance. The Vertical rolls packaging system is designed to allow stacking of two pallets. When stacking pallets two high, care should be taken to place the top pallet gently and aligned properly; the use of a plywood interlayer (min. 6 mm thickness) is recommended. Owens Corning is not responsible for any damage resulting from stacking pallets more than two high. Wooden crates are not stackable.
