Continuous Glass Fibre Strand Drawn from a Platinum Bushing
Glass fibre for cloth is not spun like wool: hundreds of fine filaments are pulled at once from small nozzles in a hot platinum box and wound up as one strand. This is the method of Slayter and Thomas's Owens-Corning patent (US 2,234,986, 1941): an electrically heated platinum-rhodium thimble melts glass cullet, a blower freezes each filament just below its nozzle, a size is put on, and a drum pulls and winds the strand. The faster the drum, the finer the fibre.

Gather the filaments through a sized guide
Gather the filaments through a sized guide
Draw all the filaments together through one guide eye kept wet with size. Here the size is wax, kept molten with a burner; the patent also names oil, starch, gum and resin. An air jet dries off the excess size.

Pull and wind on a drum
Pull and wind on a drum
Wind the strand on a fast drum that moves back and forth so it lays evenly. Draw at a few hundred to a few thousand feet per minute: the faster you draw, the finer the fibre.
