ABSTRACT:
Method for making tubular articles of tortuous configuration and of resin impregnated material. The method is intended to avoid resin-starved areas in the product. Specifically, tubular articles having high curvature, sharp transitions in cross section size and/or shape and close tolerance ends are provided these being made by applying and incorporating selectively placed porous components.
The article is formed in a mold by an inflatable mandrel which carries a continuous, surrounding knitted fabric component and one or more localized foam, felt and/or fabric devices of porous nature which control the supply, flow and/or final disposition of resin matrix in the molding process.
