Abstract: Composite tensile members made up of a plurality of line-type tensile elements, such as continuous glass fibers, embedded in an encapsulating matrix of hardenable material, such as thermosetting resin, hardenable metal, etc. The glass fibers (line-type tensile elements) are carefully oriented in side-byside relationship so that they are all substantially equally load bearing, so as to support a designed load without incurring individual fiber breakage. The matrix helps distribute the interfiber loading. Thus, all fibers are utilized. Though specifically applicable to nonyielding line-type tensile elements, fibers of metals and resins might also be used in the product and process. On a strength to weight ratio, strengths 5x the best steel wires in conventional cables, are provided in the unique composite members of the invention, using continuous glass fibers. Apparatus and process for producing the composite tensile members wherein a molten bath is used as the direct heat-transfer and pressurizing medium.
