FIBER SHIELDTM lightweight spray-in-place composite core (FSCC-LW) is a patented fiber-filled polyester blend, spray-in-place composite core that is designed for use in production lamination facilities that demand fast, high-quality output. FSCC-LW is versatile and can be sprayed with a barrier-coat system or a chopper gun with or without glass. When used in between a balanced, chopped laminate, it provides very fast process times and creates a high quality part every time. One person can now core large parts with ease.
FSCC-LW eliminates hinge points created by normal types of core by coring the entire part, including radii. Required laminate strength and stiffness can be throttled up by adding more balanced layers of chop and increased FSCC-LW.
FSCC-LW can typically be laminated upon in one hour. Skinning, coring and bulking the laminate can now be one smooth process on large parts, providing the shop time to build more parts in one shift. Because FSCC-LW is fiber-reinforced it makes an excellent bedding compound.
FSCC-LW is packaged with specially formulated resin in a supplied, 55-gallon drum, together with patented and preblended additives.
