Notes:
† The above results were obtained based on samples produced with two plies of fabric and under ideal laboratory conditions from a single lot. The average resin content of samples measured in accordance with ASTM-D2584 varied from 55% to 60% by weight. Due to variation in material properties from different lots, it is recommended that a strength reduction factor of 20% be applied to the above values.
‡ Unidirectional fabrics have negligible strength and stiffness in the transverse direction.
§ Values are reported for a single ply of fabric. Narrower width fabrics are available by special order.
