  • •E-Glass is the most inexpensive and commonly used fiber. The "E" designation stands for "electrical" because of its superior insulative properties. E-Glass has good fiber strength (~500 Ksi) and relatively low fiber modulus (~10.5 Msi).
  • •S-Glass is a standard aerospace formulation of glass that is stronger (~600 Ksi) and higher modulus (~12.5 Msi) than E-glass. The "S" designation is for "strength," and is a trade name of Owens-Corning Inc. Other fiberglass manufacturers with comparable products use designation such as "T-glass" and "R-glass."
  • •C-Glass is a corrosion resistant type of glass, and is usually used as a surfacing veil cloth on outer surfaces of laminates, or against tool surfaces to protect the laminate from corrosion.
