Fiberglass backing material
 
A few days ago some one was discussing fiberglass backing material for
anchoring fittings. Can some one tell me if it has a specific brand name and
where I can get it?

Thanks,

BS

The ready-made material is an epoxy-glass laminate called G-10. It
comes in sheets bars rods and tubes and is available fgrom mcmaster-carr
(search for garolite g-10) and from other plastics distrubutors.

Alternatively, you can make your own with leftover glass and epoxy.

Is Current Composites lower in price than McMaster? Website say $100
min. order for sheet. Is that real?

As far as I know, McMaster-Carr has NO minimum order. I order small
amounts regularly, for instance, about three weeks ago I ordered a
******* sized hole saw -only- that cost eight dollars and change. As
usual, McMaster charged the catalog price plus mimimal shipping. I love
'em! You can't beat them, and I'm NOT a stockholder (if they are even
publicly held).

Spoke to Current Composites. RE Garoalite G10 2" rod. Min order 4lf.
@39.00/lf. Just placed an order for the same material with McMaster
Carr. They sell it by the ft at $56.00/ LF. One foot min order.
Current Composites is cheaper if you can work with their min order.
