Reinforcements

ATL Composites carries a select range of reinforcements suitable for use in conventional and high performance applications such as marine, transportation, automotive, corrosive, and civil infrastructure. Our non-woven range of engineered fabrics offer significant handling and performance advantages with predictable, repeatable properties for the composite industry.

Reinforcement Types:

E-Fibreglass
Carbon Fibre
Aramid Fibre
Parabeam
3-D Glass

Orientations :

UKO Unidirectionals are available in a number of weights and are excellent where single directional tensile or compressive strength is required.

CKO Biaxial 0/90° offers significant advantages on the woven roving style of glass cloth in terms of structural performance and quality of finish.

XKO Double Bias +/- 45° combine the advantages of stitched fabrics with the exceptional formablility of bias fibre orientation.

TKO Warp Triaxial 0/+/- 45° are ideal for applications that require a combination of high longitudinal and shear strength and stiffness, and some transverse strength.

TWK Weft Triaxial 90/+/- 45° is ideal for laterally loaded applications.

QK Quadraxial 0/+/-45/90° is ideal for applications where the exact direction of the load is unknown, or varies significantly.

Tapes are available in Double Bias and Weft Triaxial E-fibreglass, and carbon fibre.
