<p>A method of pultrusion includes collating an assembly of substantially longitudinally continuous fibrous elements (126, 18', 18') and a resin from a bath (132, 122), pulling the elements (126, 18', 18') and the resin through a die (54) to shape the elements and to effect setting of the resin, where one of the elements is a mat (18a) specially designed to transport primarily transverse fibers (32) into the part (10). The mat has a first layer (34) containing a plurality of glass fibers (32) which extend substantially transversely of the mat (18a) so as to be arranged in the part (10) to provide strength to the part (10) primarily in the transverse direction.</p> |
