What To Expect When You Order Fabric Rolls

Fiberglass Chop Strand Mat - Boat Suppliers

What is chopped strand mat?

Chopped strand mat (CSM) is a non-woven fiberglass reinforcement made from randomly distributed glass fibers held together with a binder. It’s commonly used in composite layups for its affordability, ease of use, and excellent bulk-building properties.

What’s the difference between fiberglass cloth and chopped mat?

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.

Can chopped strand mat be layered with other materials?

Absolutely. It's commonly used between layers of fiberglass cloth or woven roving to add bulk and prevent print-through in gelcoats or top layers.

How much resin do I need for chopped strand mat?

On average, you’ll need about 1.2 to 1.5 times the weight of the mat in resin. For example, 1.5 oz CSM will require roughly 20–25 oz of resin per yard. Use our Epoxy Calculator to estimate your resin needs, adjusting for polyester if necessary.

Can I use chopped strand mat with epoxy resin?

Most CSM is designed for polyester or vinyl ester resin because the binder in standard mat doesn’t dissolve in epoxy. However, epoxy-compatible chopped strand mat is available and should be used if you’re working with epoxy systems.
