Our Rail Car fiberglass blanket is produced using textile-type glass fibers that have been chopped to a length of two to six inches and bonded with a thermal setting phenolic resin. The glass fibers and resin are combined in a unique air lay system that produces a random fiber orientation for exceptional strength, resiliency, and both thermal and acoustic performance.

Rail car fiberglass blanket info and advantages

• Increased tensile strength for high tensile applications. Stands up to lamination and other fabrication processes.
• Resistant to vibration
• High thermal efficiency reduces heat transfer, lowering energy consumption
• Resilient: recovers to full thickness
• Excellent bond strength: blanket resists separation
• Ease of handling and fabrication
• Resistant to bacterial and fungal growth
• Compression-packed: saves freight costs, storage space and protects against damage
