High Pressure Vessels, CNG Cylinders, Waste-water Filters, Corrosion Resistant Tanks & Pipes
If your high-pressure vessels are too heavy with E-glass or if your CNG cylinders are too expensive with S-glass then you need KV’s basalt fiber.
If you are forced to renew your filters too often or if your tubes are corroding too then quickly then you need KV’s basalt fiber.
Our advanced basalt fibers have 15-20% higher tensile strength and tensile modulus, better chemical resistance, and an extended operating temperature range compared to regular E-glass. KV’s basalt performance is close to that of high strength and corrosion resistant fibers but at a more attractive price.
Comparison of KV’s basalt fibers and standard glass fibers
 
Using our basalt fibers in high pressure vessels instead of High dtrength glass will cut your costs significantly.
Kamenny Vek offers special basalt fiber rovings for filament winding. This product is recommended for the manufacture of composite high-pressure and corrosion resistant vessels. The main grade of these rovings is designed for epoxy resin impregnation, but sizing for vinyl ester and polyester resins is also available.
