1/4 Chopped Strand Mat Fiberglass Fibers Quart

Used the stuff to make peanut butter work great

Look good. Have yet to add them to some resin but they have a good weight to them.

Works well! Exactly as described. Container seems robust enough to last.

Exactly what it is supposed to be, good for thickening and adding strength to epoxy resin. Nice consistant size of chop. I recommend adding a little at a time to your epoxy as a little can go a long way.

Finally learning to add fibers after catylist and everything else is mixed well so as not to disturb the fibers too much, but these chopped fibers stay together very well and mix even better. Excellent product. Used in restoring an old fiberglass sailboat.

Great Product. Exactly what I needed, not too long and it’s amazing how a little goes a long way. Delivery was pretty amazing too. Ordered after business hours on Tuesday & it was delivered to my door early afternoon on Wednesday.

I had been making my own chopped strand filler for a couple years, but I got a little sick of all the work involved. I saw a video on using chopped fiber for fiberglassing, and I immediately went to Amazon to check it out. The Fasco chopped fiber caught my eye, and I decided to give it a shot. The prices all around Amazon were close to the same, but most of the sellers wanted $15 to $20 bucks shipping! Then I found the Fasco Enterprises site and the chopped fiber was seventeen bucks with free shipping (I am an Amazon Prime member.) It arrived within two days. I immediately went into the shop to try it out. It works SO much better than home-made, and is great for adding strength to joints or molding around complex-shaped objects. I highly recommend Fasco Enterprises ! Their selection, prices and shipping are top notch, and, although Ive only tried the one product from them, I will gladly be working with them again.

As described

I have been ordering this same product for several years. This recent batch is heavier than before. The 1/4 chop sinks to the bottom of my mixture instead of staying suspended while the resin is curing. I am left with the chop settling to the bottom and not well mixed into the resin. I have never had this problem before. Also, I use a specific amount of resin, hardener and chop by WEIGHT, not volume. I have noticed that there is MUCH less chop for the same weight I have always used. There is something definitely different about this batch of chop. It is not doing the job I need it to.

However for what I needed the stiffness of the chop was not what I expected . I used it to thicken epoxy and use for a glue between wood strips. I believe it will do the job. My other option was cotton phlox and fumed silica. The chopped strands made for poor brush on . I opted to make a dip and wet out joint creating a trough of chopped and pressing the whetted strip into the mat and applying to the other whetted strip clamping together. Its all about purpose.
