Spraylite Filler Systems

Spraylite Filler Systems are a series of user-friendly specialty fillers designed to economically and efficiently improve properties in fiberglass reinforced composites. Whatever the application, Spraylites will enhance the quality of your parts and simplify your processing, resulting in significant impact on your bottom line.

Spraylite Lowers Your Costs

Spraylites are cost competitive particulate systems engineered to save you money and improve performance in many different ways.

• High filler loading means lower matrix costs: When compared to unfilled systems, the high volume loading capability of Spraylite can help reduce total raw material costs by displacing resin and reinforcements. Compared to a standard resin/glass system, Spraylites can provide a savings of up to 15% of your raw material costs. In a Spraylite filled system, cost reductions are achieved by Spraylite’s ability to extend your resin volume over typical mineral fillers.

• Less abrasion means lower maintenance costs: Materials in Spraylite are less abrasive than typical mineral fillers. This results in less wear on equipment and lower maintenance expenses.

• Reduced rollout means increased production rates: Due to the lighter weight matrix, Spraylite improves the ease of air removal from spray-up laminates and significantly reduces drainage, resulting in less rollout effort and working time.

• Lighter parts mean lower shipping costs: Think of what a 10-15% weight savings per unit can save you in freight rates over the course of a year.

Spraylite Creates High Quality Parts

Spraylites are engineered to improve the properties and aesthetics of your fiberglass reinforced composite parts.

• Improved Surface Bond: Spraylite’s ability to replace resin reduces shrinkage, improves adhesion to surface materials, and allows the polyester/surface bond to strengthen.

• Better Cosmetics: Because less resin is used in a Spraylite filled system, the peak exotherm is lower and curing stress due to resin shrink is reduced. The result is less fiber print-through and less in-mold cracking.
