Flexibility! Glass Fiber can dissipate energy along the fiber, normal glass does not have a structure to dissipate the energy in an even form and proves easier to crack as a result. Similarly the lifting ropes of cranes are actually coiled metal fibres and not solid chain link, the metal fibres dissipate the weight better than the chain.

What is auto glass made out of?
Auto glass is made out of a strong yet flexible polycarbonate. This is stronger than normal glass and will resist scratches and crack easier than the regular glass can.
What is the world's strongest material?
Diamond! is the common answer Graphene is the real answer and it's 200 times stronger than steel
Is a diamond stronger than steel?
Yes. Actually... a diamond is NOT 'stronger' than steel. A diamond is 'harder' than steel, but it is not stronger.
What damage does a nuclear bomb to a regular bomb?
first off, of course, a nuclear bomb is thousands of times stronger than a normal bomb. a nuclear bomb also carries radiation, energy that causes poisoning and cancer, while most normal bombs cant do that.
What is the difference between Tempered Glass and Annealed Glass and which one is better?
Tempering is the process to add properties to the raw glass and to make it Standard or Toughened. If tempered (Heated) and cooled slowly, it becomes standard glass on the other hand if tempered and cooled rapidly, it gains different properties and becomes tough or is called toughened glass. Check the link below.
What is an epoxy surfboard?
an epoxy surfboard is when a surfboard is made out of epoxy resin this is more stronger and lighter than the normal fiber glass and they can have more stronger colours than fiber glass this can be done without the silk laminating process
What is auto glass made out of?
Auto glass is made out of a strong yet flexible polycarbonate. This is stronger than normal glass and will resist scratches and crack easier than the regular glass can.
Are horse's hoofs stronger than glass?
Yes their hooves are much stronger then glass.
Is metal stronger than glass?
no.
Is fiber glass stronger than polycarbonate?
Fiberglass is generally stronger than polycarbonate in terms of impact resistance and durability. However, polycarbonate is known for its higher resistance to shattering and flexibility, making it a popular choice for applications where impact resistance and flexibility are important.
Is carbon fiber tough?
yes its stronger than steel
Is plexiglass stronger than glass?
yes
Which one is harder glass or iron?
Iron is harder than glass. Glass is a brittle material that can shatter easily under pressure, while iron is a much stronger and more durable material that is often used in construction and machinery.
What is lexan polycarbonate?
A plastic with special coating that is 250 times stronger than glass and 30 times stronger than acrylic.
What is the difference between a carbon fiber and GRP?
Carbon fiber is a reinforced composite material made of carbon fibers embedded in a polymer resin matrix, known for its lightweight and strong properties. On the other hand, GRP (Glass Reinforced Plastic) is a composite material made of glass fibers embedded in a plastic resin matrix. The main difference lies in the type of fibers used (carbon vs. glass) and their respective properties in terms of strength, weight, and cost.
Are army ants stronger than normal ants?
Yes they are.
Are shiny Pokemon stronger than normal Pokemon?
yes they are
