ABSTRACT:
A glass fiber forming apparatus including a fin blade assembly having a manifold and a plurality of fins extending from the manifold. The fins are located beneath a bushing tip plate in proximity to and between the rows of tips to maintain a desired temperature among the glass filaments attenuated from the tips. The manifold is offset from the fin blades so as to allow clear visibility of the tip plate and unimpeded air flow passage through the fin blades during the glass fiber forming operation.
