Glass fiber nonwoven filter media

Cheshire Ribbon needle mat is manufactured from E-Glass fibres that are specially carded to produce a high volume batt. This is then mechanically needled to bond the fibres, which results in a dimensionally stable mat or felt, possessing excellent thermal and acoustic insulating properties without any chemical binder. The needled effect bonds and secures the individual fibres thus ensuring no fibre loss via the perforated tubes. E- Glass fibres have a minimal amount of surface dressing that is required to assist in processing, this is usually organic i.e. starch and will disappear at temperatures above 200°C.
E-Glass needlemats are suitable for continuous use at temperatures up to 550°C, however tensile strength continues to reduce noticeably as temperatures increase above 400°C
