The first propeller designs used a 60% long glass fiber reinforced nylon 6 composite, and testing on higher horsepower motors was successful. Complēt™ MT long glass fiber reinforced nylon 6 composite was selected because of the extra durability provided, making this solution ideal for demanding applications like Piranha’s propellers. The addition of a toughening agent to the long fiber composite provided improved vibration damping, according to Stahl.

WHY COMPOSITES? Glasforms is one of the world’s most respected brands in pultruded fiber reinforced polymers (FRP) and advanced composites. Our broad portfolio ranges from fiberglass reinforced electrical insulator rods, poles, and cross arms to carbon fiber composite components for infrastructure repair and sporting goods

Avient PlastiComp Complēt™ & OnForce™ long fiber composite pellets are manufactured using a pultrusion process.  This fiber to polymer bond is key to obtaining optimum performance and having a true composite material.  The melt impregnated fiber exits the die as continuous composite strands which are cooled using water and/or air until solidified.

METAL REPLACEMENT COMBINES METAL’S STRENGTH WITH PLASTIC’S LIGHT WEIGHT CASE STUDY: COMPLĒT™ LONG GLASS FIBER REINFORCED COMPOSITE Challe nge Accepted. Spurred by the need for high strength and low weight, Avient quickly identified a Complēt™ long glass fiber nylon composite as a best-fit solution. Using the new Complēt long glass fiber nylon formulation, the redesigned yoke underwent testing at Bettcher to simulate 500,000 run cycles.
