View Full Version : Which is lighter/stronger Plastic or fiberglass....both are the same dimensions. (plastic from car) audis4me 10-05-2001, 07:37 AM Which is stronger/lighter? Plastic(from a car interior) or fiberglass same dimensions? Thanks! KurtW 10-05-2001, 10:20 AM Depends on your intended use/material requirements. SuspendedLikeaMoFo. 10-05-2001, 02:59 PM There are also different types of plastic - different ways of forming, etc. audis4me 10-07-2001, 08:19 AM I think in my old civic, I am going to be doing some fiberglass parts such as armrest and console. ANd i was wondering if it will be as strong and atleast the same weight. thanks KurtW 10-07-2001, 02:47 PM ....it breaks. Plastic may not be as statically strong, but instead of failure (cracking, disintigrating) it will flex or simply lose some of its form. Breaking or fraying into pieces that may cut you, as FG will, is unlikely. |
