ABSTRACT:
A process for making glass fibers is provided comprising supplying a stream of molten glass to a rotating rotor; discharging said glass through orifices in said rotor as a plurality of primary streams; and attenuating said primary streams into fibers, said spinner being fabricated from a superalloy by a process comprising electropolishing said rotor sufficient to substantially eliminate the "break-in" period otherwise associated with such rotors.
