Fabric glass low structure 160 g/m² OLAPLEX 1 x 50 m — fiberglass cloth roll for reinforcement

OLAPLEX fabric glass low structure 160 g/m² is a fiberglass cloth supplied as a single 50 m roll designed for reinforcement, lamination and composite repairs. The low-structure weave offers a flat, uniform surface that facilitates good resin impregnation and even curing. With a mass of 160 g/m² the fabric balances strength and flexibility, providing dimensional stability while remaining workable for curved and flat applications in construction, marine, automotive and repair tasks.

Advantages

The low-structure weave minimises surface texture for easier finishing and reduced sanding. The 160 g/m² weight provides consistent mechanical reinforcement without excessive stiffness, making the cloth suitable for multi-layer laminates or single-layer repairs. Supplied as a continuous 50 m roll, the product reduces joins and waste for large-scale projects and allows custom cutting to required sizes. The material is compatible with common resin systems, enabling reliable adhesion and predictable composite properties.

Suitable for

• Structural reinforcement in laminates and panels
• Boat hull and deck repairs and lamination
• Automotive body repairs and composite parts
• Construction and civil engineering composite strengthening
• General composite repair and prototyping

Key specifications

• Weave type: low-structure fiberglass cloth
• Mass per area: 160 g/m²
• Length per roll: 50 m
• Form: continuous roll suitable for cutting to size
• Compatibility: suitable for use with polyester, epoxy and vinylester resins and common adhesives

How to use

Cut the required fabric length with sharp scissors and lay it over a clean, dry surface. Pre-fit layers to avoid wrinkles and ensure correct orientation of the weave. Apply the chosen resin system evenly to the substrate, then place the fiberglass cloth and wet out thoroughly so fibres are fully impregnated. Use rollers or brushes to remove air and ensure full contact between fabric and substrate. Allow the laminate to cure according to the resin manufacturer's instructions before trimming, sanding or applying subsequent layers.

Usage recommendations

Store the roll in a dry, dust-free environment and keep it protected from direct sunlight and moisture. When cutting and handling, use appropriate personal protective equipment such as gloves, long sleeves and eye protection to avoid irritation from glass fibres. For best results with structural applications, follow the resin system guidelines for layer schedule, curing temperature and post-cure if required.
