Milled Glass Fibers

General Description

As the name implies, this material is made by milling fiberglass into a very thin consistency. This material is used in preparing a structural filler. This material is used in fillets that require structural integrity. Milled fiber fillers have higher strength than cotton flock but have fine particles of fiberglass that can penetrate the skin.

Velocity Use

Flocked cotton and milled glass fiber are used interchangeably, typically where an epoxy-to-metal bond is required, such as in seat and seat-belt hardpoints.

Packaging Weights

Aircraft Spruce sells milled fiber in 1 lbs bags.

Directions for Use

Mix with target epoxy to desired thickness, then apply to prepared surface.

Safety and Handling

Do not inhale.
