GL®P


Productimage - GL®P

Typical applications of GL® P are in thermal high stressed presses and punch units, in the glass making industry, in welding plants and in extrusion dies.

  • very high continuous usage temperature

  • very high compressive strength

  • excellent insulation effect

The grade GL® P offers a higher usage temperature than other glass fibre reinforced thermosetting materials. Compared to fibre cement materials GL® P can be used for applications with higher mechanical loads.
