Hexcel HiMax Fiberglass E-Glass Fabric Biaxial +45°/-45° 23.59oz/800gsm
Description
Hexcel HiMax Fiberglass E-Glass Fabric Biaxial +45°/-45° 23.59oz/800gsm – 50"/127cm
Hexcel HiMax Fiberglass E-Glass Biaxial +45°/-45° 23.59oz/800gsm is a heavy-duty stitched reinforcement engineered for high-strength, high-load composite laminates. With its balanced +45°/-45° non-crimp construction, this fabric delivers exceptional shear strength, stiffness, and impact resistance while maintaining stable drape and efficient wet-out, making it ideal for demanding structural and industrial applications.
Key Features
- Fiber: High-quality E-Glass fibers for robust, durable structural laminates.
- Orientation: +45°/-45° biaxial stitched construction optimized for shear and torsional performance.
- Construction: Non-crimp; fibers remain as straight as possible to maximize mechanical properties and resin efficiency.
- Weight: 23.59oz (800gsm) for very heavy-duty reinforcement and laminate build-up.
- Standard Width: 50" (127cm) for efficient coverage and reduced seams.
- Resin Compatibility: Suitable for epoxy, vinyl ester, and polyester resin systems.
- Quality: Manufactured by Hexcel HiMax for consistent, professional-grade performance in critical applications.
Typical Applications
- Marine transoms, stringers, bulkheads, and heavily loaded structural areas
- Automotive and motorsports chassis sections, reinforcement ribs, and high-impact zones
- Industrial and architectural panels, beams, and load-bearing structures
- Tooling, molds, and backing laminates requiring high stiffness and durability
- Any application where maximum strength, thickness build, and impact resistance are required
Processing Guidelines
- Suitable for hand lay-up, vacuum bagging, resin infusion, and RTM processes.
- Ensure thorough wet-out of the heavy stitched bundles to realize full mechanical performance.
- Align the +45°/-45° fibers with anticipated load paths for optimal structural efficiency.
- Use compatible resin systems and follow recommended cure schedules for best results.
Ordering
- Width: 50" (127cm)
- Sold by: Linear Yard — 1 yard = 36" length x full width
- Multiple yards are supplied in one continuous length whenever possible.
How We Sell
We sell this fabric by the linear yard. You will receive a continuous piece of fabric at the width listed.
For example, if the fabric is 50" wide, a quantity of 1 (linear yard) equals a continuous piece measuring 50" wide × 36" long. A quantity of 5 (linear yards) equals a continuous piece measuring 50" wide × 180" long.
