Fiberglass for Aviation Components

Ever heard of fiberglass — something? I know it kinda sounds weird, but it's actually a really big deal material we use in airplanes! Fiberglass is composed of very thin tube-like fibers weaved into a lightweight, durable fabric. To begin with, fiberglass is just that material we see being used to build various products, including but not limited to sports equipment, boats, and even the plastic parts on your vehicle. But the single best and most notable application of fiberglass is in parts of airplanes!

How Fiberglass is Revolutionizing Aircraft Design

Earlier, airplanes similar to those were predominantly metal. Because metal is strong and acceptable to act in sky. However, thanks to new technology and materials like fiberglass airplane designers have a lot more options. Fiberglass is a super light material compared to metals. This actually opens up incredible ways of creating form which have never been able to be achieved before by designers. Because of fiberglass they can be built lighter so the aircraft can fly further with not a lot fuel!
