SMC Roving
Overview
SMC rovings (Rovings for Sheet Molding Compounds) are especially designed as reinforcement
for Sheet Molding Compound (SMC), which offers improved
processing over conventional products
where fast wet through and good sheet density are required.
It is manufactured from a collection of continuous glass filaments,
gathered, without mechanical twists, into a split strand. The
filaments are bonded together with a high performance vinylester
and polyester compatible size.
Product applications include automobile and truck structural body panels such as fenders, doors, hoods, recreational vehicle housings, water storage towers, and sporting goods.
