Econostitch® and Econostitch® G are economical, heat set and scoured peel plies with tracers which make these peel plies more visible before and after a cure, reducing the possibility of the peel ply being left on the part.
Our Econo peel plies are designed to work in resin infusion or hand lay-up processes. Econostitch® and Econostitch® G assist or eliminate the need for sanding or abrading on your composite laminate.
• Peel plies strip off of cured laminates leaving a textured surface, reducing time spent hand finishing.
• Lower cost fabric reduces overall cost of vacuum bag process materials.
• Pin stripes (tracers) make fabric more visible to reduce risk of leaving in place after cure.
