5. High-Performance
Structural Efficiency
V2’s non-crimp fabrics provide maximum fiber strength while
maintaining a fabric’s structural integrity since fibers are not
crimped or stressed as they are in conventionally woven fabrics.

8. V2’s patented V-Lock® stitch technology
propels composite reinforcement fabrics to
the next level with high-performance fabrics
that don’t unravel.
V-Lock Competition
V-Lock is a breakthrough “no-run” system that prevents
frayed edges, running stitches and deconstruction,
making non-crimp multiaxial fabrics more stable.
With traditional stitch matrices, laminators
are often frustrated during lay-up
by entangled stitches,
frayed edges, and fabrics
that fall apart when cut
into complex shapes.
V-Lock prevents these prob-
lems with its proprietary
thermal coupling , which
welds ascending stitches to-
gether on the loop side of the
fabric during manufacturing.
V-Lock’s polyester stitch me-
dium eliminates contamination or
off-gassing during lamination. And
since fabrics can be bonded with a
looser stitch, the V-Lock matrix en-
courages resin flow and prevents “dry
spots” during lamination.
High-performance non-crimp fabrics
with V-Lock allow customers to:
• Significantly reduce fabric waste
• Expedite fabrication processes
• Extend the longevity of pre-cut dry
reinforcement materials

9. The Pultruder's
Advantage
Multiaxial Reinforcement Architecture
Custom Fabric
Architecture
V2’s reinforcement fabrics, which
are custom-engineered to meet
your unique requirements, provide
significant advantages to pultruders:
• Improve mechanical properties in the off
axis (90/+45/-45)
• Custom roll sizes for longer runs increase
efficiency in the pultruder’s process
• Width control minimizes distortion
• Fabrics reduce single end roving creel package count
• Fabrics can be constructed from glass, aramid, carbon, or any
combination thereof
V-Lock
This patented stitch technology boosts the structural integrity of multiaxial fabrics. V-Lock
reinforcements are more stable and prevent problems commonly encountered with other types of
reinforcement fabrics, such as unravelling, frayed edges, running stitches and deconstruction. V-Lock’s
advantages to pultruders include:
• High fabric stability for pull through
• Ability to run small tapes with no fraying
• High Integrity for off-line slitting
• Expedited fabrication processes

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
V2 Composites, Inc. Introduces V-Lock® No-Run Stitch Technology
Auburn, AL V2 Composites, Inc., an innovative, Alabama-based manufacturer specializing in the design and fabrication of custom
knit matrix reinforcement fabric solutions, recently introduced a patented non-run stitch technology that significantly reduces runs
in non-crimp multi-axial fabrics. Advanced composite design solutions are used in place of metals, alloys, wood, concrete, and other
conventional construction materials to rehabilitate aging infrastructures and to improve product performance in a number of
industrial applications.
According to Kevin Horne, President & CEO, “We closely examined our markets, searching for specific areas of product weakness.
One of the recurring concerns for customers of composite reinforcements has been the instability of the stitch matrix that holds the
reinforcement fibers in place. Existing warp/weft knit stitching technology was just not adequate for holding the fabric matrix
together when cut into complex shapes.”
Horne explains, “During fabric/resin lay-up, when a stitch line is disturbed or fractured by a roller or brush, the stitch yarn can
become caught and may very easily run out of the fabric.” This problem is similarly observed in woven fabrics, which tend to fall
apart at the edges when cut into complex shapes. Horne continues, “The problem has been frequently reported and is very annoying
to customers. You can imagine laminate workers trying to cut these yarns or strings (as they are called) with resin-gummed scissors.
It’s a harrowing chore.”
The industry’s move towards computerized cutting tables, in order to save time and maximize pattern lay-ups, is accelerating the
demand for fabrics that cut more cleanly, and which hold their edge without tangling up around the cutting head.
V2 is addressing this problem with its unique V-Lock™ non-run stitch technology. According to Horne, the V-Lock process welds the
ascending stitches together on the loop side of the fabric only. The stitch medium remains polyester (as opposed to low-melt vinyl
ester sheathing, etc.), therefore eliminating contamination or off-gassing during the lamination/cross-linking process.
V-Lock technology also makes it possible for fabrics to be bonded using a looser stitch. According to Horne, “Over-tension in
stitching can restrict resin flow through and along the reinforcement fibers, forcing fibers to lay flatter in a lower profile and
thereby increasing fiber volume fraction.”
Kevin Horne, president and CEO of V2 Composites, Inc. reports, “These high-performance reinforcement fabrics don’t unravel. The
added value for customers is significant in terms of reduced waste and improved longevity of their pre-cut dry reinforcement
materials.”
The V-Lock system is proprietary and involves precise thermal coupling management technology. According to Horne, the process
takes place as the fabric is manufactured so that no secondary handling is required.
Horne concludes, “V-Lock technology is taking composite reinforcement fabrics to a higher level of performance. That’s good news
for an industry that is aggressively pursuing value-added solutions for infrastructure, construction, heavy-duty transportation, sports
and recreation, aerospace, automotive, marine, and other commercial applications.”
V2 Composites, Inc., where vision and versatility unite, unlocks a world of possibilities with high-performance composite reinforcements. Over the
past decade, V2 has employed advanced composite technology to deliver custom-designed reinforcements for use in an ever-increasing variety of
applications. V2’s high-performance composite solutions are backed by unparalleled service, expertise and innovation with an unwavering
