Fiberglass Coated Fabric: Uses and Applications

Fiberglass coated silicon fabric is a durable, high-performance material made by coating fiberglass cloth with rubber, silicone, PVC, or other polymers.

It combines the strength of fiberglass with the flexibility and weather resistance of coatings, making it ideal for:

1. Industrial Applications

  • Protective Covers: Used for machinery, conveyor belts, and equipment due to its tear and abrasion resistance.

  • Heat Insulation: Withstands high temperatures (e.g., in welding blankets or furnace curtains).

  • Chemical Resistance: Linings for tanks or pipes handling corrosive substances.

2. Construction & Architecture

  • Waterproofing Membranes: For roofs, tunnels, and foundations.

  • Tensile Structures: Lightweight yet strong material for canopies, awnings, and stadium roofs.

3. Transportation

  • Truck Tarps: Waterproof and UV-resistant covers for cargo.

  • Aerospace & Marine: Fire-resistant barriers or composite reinforcement.

4. Safety & Specialty Uses

  • Fireproof Curtains/Blankets: Silicone-coated variants resist extreme heat.

  • Electrical Insulation: Non-conductive layers in electrical components.
