Bleeder Lease® C & Bleeder Lease® E peel plies are high temperature fibreglass fabrics coated with a silicone release agent. The coating prevents the fabric from bonding to the laminate so it can be peeled off leaving a textured surface. It will release easily from most prepregs and resin systems. All coated peel plies have the potential to transfer. It has been used up to 427°C (800°F) cures and releases from most resin systems and is ideal for use on polyimide and thermoplastic high temperature lay-ups.
• Release coating reduces the effort required to remove peel ply from laminate.
• Peel plies strip off of cures laminates leaving a textured surface, reducing time spent hand finishing.
• Fibreglass retains its strength through high temperature cures and post cures for easier removal after cure.
• Tightly woven Bleeder Lease® E leaves a finer textured surface and has lower resin absorption.
