PD PowerStrand®
PD PowerStrand®
the solution for applications where conventional E-glass fibers have reached their limits!
PD Powerstrand®
a high-modulus glass that scores with strong performance for extreme loads.
PD PowerStrand®
is characterized by significantly improved physical properties compared to E-glass fibres. In particular, higher tensile and compressive strength and improved impact strength should be emphasized here. Positive properties such as low weight, fire and smoke protection, sound insulation and radio and radar permeability are of central importance for many applications.
The export of PD PowerStrand® must be approved if necessary. Each exporter is responsible for compliance with the regulations applicable in his country. Apart from this, the import/export regulations of third countries may be relevant.
