Fiberglass 6oz S Glass 38" Plain Weave JPS Style 85392.
S-glass creates about a 25-30% increase in breaking strength from the E-glass.  Used in applications where the highest possible strength is required while keeping weight to a minimum.  This material was made by JPS, a leading manufacturer of composite materials in the USA, and their long lasting presence in the composite industry will ensure you receive a quality material.
S-Glass is commonly used in surf boards, fishing rods, boats, aircraft, and really any situation where high strength is needed.
FROM THE MANUFACTURER
Composition and Characteristics of S-Glass
S-glass is a high performance glass fiber, distinguished from E-glass primarily by its higher silica content. S-glass typically contains the oxides of silicon, aluminum, and magnesium with the following mechanical properties:
Density:
2.53 g/cm
3
(157.9 lb/ft
3
)
Tensile strength:
4,600 MPa (670 ksi)
Modulus of elasticity:
89 GPa (12,910 ksi)
Percent elongation:
5.2
Compared to E-glass, S-fiberglass offers much higher tensile strength and elastic modulus as well as about 10% greater stiffness. Other key characteristics include excellent temperature resistance, good moisture resistance, and long fatigue and shelf lives. These qualities make it suitable for use in demanding applications. For example, it is commonly used in the aerospace industry for cargo liners, gaskets, and other interior components.
S-glass is available in a variety of weave patterns. Some of the best patterns for the fabric are:
Plain weave:
consists of fibers interlaced in an alternating over/under pattern
Basket weave
: consists of two or more fibers interlaced in an alternating over/under pattern
Leno:
consists of two or more warp fibers crossed over each other and interlaced with one or more fill fibers
8H satin:
consists of one fill fiber floating over seven warp fibers and under one
At JPS Composite Materials, we are the largest weaver of glass fabrics in North America. Glass fabrics—also known as fiberglass fabrics—generally exhibit excellent shear strength, thermal stability, and electrical properties, all of which make them suitable for use in composites applications across a wide range of industries. However, they are also available in many formulations, each of which offers slightly different characteristics that make it suitable for distinct use cases.
