IMPORTANT!
Mats with alternative fiber directions that have a den-

) may be used
as long as the minimum requirements for the number
of layers, total density and total thickness are fulfilled.
IMPORTANT!
Secondary bonding must be avoided during lamina-
tion; refer to General page

Fitting against reinforcement ring.
The mats must follow the reinforcement ring contours
strictly and reach up beyond the line marked in the fig-
ure.
