Style 6533 is a 6 oz/yd² (203 g/m²) plain weave woven from S-2 glass, with roughly 25 to 30 percent more breaking strength than E-glass at the same weight. 0.0089" (0.23 mm) thick, in 27" and 30" widths.

It is the general-purpose layup weight in a stronger fiber: board decks and rails, paddle and kayak laminates, and repairs where you want 6 oz handling with more strength behind it. Works with epoxy, polyester or vinyl ester; pair it with epoxy to get the most out of the fiber.

What To Expect When You Order Fabric Rolls

6oz Fiberglass Woven Cloth

Yes, epoxy resin is ideal for wetting out fiberglass cloth and other reinforcements like carbon fiber and Kevlar. It saturates the fabric well and cures into a strong, durable laminate.

Yes. With the right resin, fiberglass cloth bonds to wood, metal, foam, and cured fiberglass. Use epoxy for wood and metal, since it grips those substrates far better than polyester. Prep matters more than the cloth: sand to clean, bare material, remove all dust and oil, and wet out the surface before laying the cloth down.

The weight refers to ounces per square yard. Lighter cloth (e.g., 4oz) is more flexible and used for fine finishing; heavier cloth (e.g., 10oz) provides more strength and bulk.

Use sharp scissors or a rotary cutter on a clean surface. To reduce fraying, run masking tape along the cut line and cut through the middle of the tape, and handle cut edges gently. Keep the cloth dry before layup, since moisture on the glass weakens the resin bond.

Fiberglass cloth is used to reinforce composite materials in applications like boat building, surfboard repairs, auto bodywork, and structural laminates. It’s combined with resin to form a strong, lightweight composite.

Fiberglass cloth is woven for strength in specific directions, while chopped strand mat is made of randomly oriented fibers and is better for building bulk.
