Blue Glass Fiber

[RickLong]

Hoping someone can point me in the right direction. Does anyone know of a vendor for blue glass fiber? Where I buy carbon fiber they don't sell blue glass fiber... I know PSI at one time sold blue glass fiber blanks but I rather do my own casts.

Thanks,

Rick

Try Soller Composites. It's where I bought my carbon fiber and composite sleeves.

Thanks Eric.... This is where I get mine too. They don't carry glass fiber, already asked....

Anyone else?

That's odd, given that their website allows one to order it online.

Soller does carry fiberglass tubing as I got some 2 weeks ago. Are you looking for blue carbon fiber tubing as I have never seen that before.

Carbon fiber is naturally black, so you won't find blue 100% carbon fiber sleeves. Soller does sell 50% carbon 50% fiberglass sleeving in black/blue and black/light blue.

Yep, this is what I want... But looking to buy it in a sleeve like that carbon fiber.. so I can do any tube/kit I want to cast...

I called soller composite and the young lady said they do not carry blue glass fiber... They carry blue carbon fiber... big difference...

Thanks for all the replies...

The link I originally posted takes you directly to the colored fiberglass sleeves on Soller Composites' webstore. If the person on the phone was correct, then they shouldn't be taking orders online.

What you are looking for does not come in sleeve form. You would have to buy it in sheet form and roll it on a tube. It will have a seam. I do not have the link off hand but if you google glass fiber you will get some hits.
