Does it shed fiber glass like other non-carbonized fiber blankets?

Doesn't seem to. I use them on my rifles when leaving the range and have had zero shedding issues.

I haven't used it a lot, but so far no sign of fiberglass. The Steiner web site says:"The unique CF™ fabrics are made of a revolutionary blend of high performance, non-flammable, carbon based fibers blended with durable Para-Aramid strengthening fibers. "No mention of fiberglass. Also, the fibers are extremely soft, so I have no reason to believe there is any fiberglass in it.

There is a smooth silicone coating over the fiberglass mesh. Your baked goods slide right off the mat when they are done. I love this mat!

It reminds me a lot of batting (the stuff that goes between the front and back and makes it thicker) for a blanket. Alone, it is kind of irritating to the skin and lungs like insulation is so for sure i would make sure that it was covered with another fabric (like cotton or flannel) if you were to use it as a rat cage liner. It does seem to absorb very well and it is washer and dryer safe... but I would think that only after it is covered in another fabric.

No it does not shed. I want one that is about 4 feet long to get in the back spaces of furniture

From all that I have read, it is PA and TPR rubber, whatever they are. No mention of fiberglass at all.

I can't remember exactly if the stitching went all the way around but I believe it did. They seemed very durable. I'm not sure what the other 20% fiber content is. The blankets are in our fleet cars, so I don't have easy access to look at one. Hope this helps.

The blanket is heavy weight flame retardant fiberglass, with 1000 degree rating, blanket works great for protection of sparks and flash. Have not used with a cutting torch. Hope this helps you

Don't know. Ours went in the back of an oven. Fiber glass is an insulator but the tape is very thin. It would very much depend on your proposed application

I have not experienced any shedding. These are actually pretty good quality. I haven't used them very roughly so I don't know if they shed. I've used it to wipe down computer monitors. Plastic surfaces and glass. No shedding so far. Hope this helps.

Hmmm not sure bur if fiberglass is very shiny maybe it's best to use only microfiber materials?

The insulated base appears to be merely a foam sheet that the nylon is flocked onto. All I know for sure is that once you have one of these blankets, you'll love it. I keep mine on the bed year round...it's perfect!! Easy to wash/dry, light weight, just perfect. Who cares about the specifics....I LOVE this blanket!!!

I agree with others. Outside is fine. I just replaced one that was outside 20+ years. Fiberglass fibers had been exposed for past few years with no problems. New version seems to have better coating on fiberglass.

Not that I am aware of although the blanket really retains heat well even after its off.

No, mine has never shed. And I have used it almost daily during the winter.

If it is truly Fiberglass then the answer is yes. However, remember there is "No Free Lunch". You will have to put the time and effort into the task.

I dont know about the fiberglass layer. I really like the bed. The top is foam so it does form to your body it might take a little getting use to. I still think its a great mattress compared to what I have seen in stores.
