ROVING BRAIDED FABRIC 270 g/m2

Function and technical context

Braided roving fabric is a fiberglass structural reinforcement material used in the construction and repair of boat hulls, decks and structural components. Its interlocking braid architecture provides multi-directional strength, distributing mechanical loads evenly across the laminate surface. This type of fabric is impregnated with polyester, vinylester or epoxy resins to form composite laminates of high rigidity and durability, being essential in fibering work both in the shipyard and in on-board repairs. Correct application guarantees the structural integrity of the hull and prevents delamination, moisture ingress and premature deterioration of the laminate.

When to replace or use this fabric?

It is necessary to resort to roving braided fabric when signs of delamination, osmosis, structural impacts or cracks are detected in the fiberglass laminate of the hull or structural elements of the boat. In osmosis repairs, the work cycle includes complete sanitation of the affected area and subsequent refiberation with this type of fabric to recover the thickness and mechanical resistance of the laminate. It is recommended to check the condition of the laminate at each annual beaching and act preventively in the event of any areas with bubbles, discoloration or loss of surface cohesion, since early intervention avoids larger and more costly repairs.
