Stitched Combo Mat

Stitched combo mat is a special reinforcement specifically designed for use in closed mould systems, such as RTM and Vacuum Infusion. The surface layers consist of chopped strands E-glass fiber which are stitched together with a porous elastic layer in between. The middle layer is core material made from polypropylene which provides increased resin flow properties along with good surface quality.

Stitched combo mat is compatible with polyester, vinyl ester, phenolic and epoxy resins. The product is widely used in pultrusion, hand lay-up and RTM processes. The product is used most widely in the boat industry and the typical applications include FRP boat hulls, automotive housings and doors, laminates, cooling apparatus and structural shapes.
