Ilaphu lefayibha ye-basalt likwabizwa ngokuba lilaphu elilukiweyo le-basalt fibre, lilukwe yi-basalt fiber esebenza kakhulu emva kokujija kunye nokulwa. Ifayibha ye-Basalt luhlobo lwelaphu eliphezulu elisebenza ngamandla, ukuthungwa okufanayo, umphezulu osicaba kunye neendlela ezahlukeneyo zokuluka. Isenokulukwa ibe ilaphu elicekethekileyo elinokungena kakuhle komoya kunye namandla anoxinano oluphezulu. Ilaphu eliqhelekileyo le-basalt fiber plain, ilaphu le-twill, ilaphu le-weft kunye nelaphu eliphindwe kabini, ibhanti ye-basalt fiber njalo njalo.
Isetyenziswa kakhulu kwi-electronics, kushishino lweekhemikhali, i-aerospace, ukwakhiwa kweenqanawa, iimoto, izakhiwo zokuhombisa kunye namanye amasimi, kwaye ikwayinto eyimfuneko esisiseko kwitekhnoloji yokusika. Ilaphu elisisiseko linokuxhathisa ubushushu obuphezulu, ukugqunywa kobushushu, ukumelana nomlilo, ukuxhathisa umhlwa, ukuxhathisa ukuguga, ukumelana nemozulu, amandla aphezulu, inkangeleko ekhazimlayo njl.njl. Isetyenziswa kakhulu kwi-electronics, kushishino lweekhemikhali, i-aerospace, isakhiwo senqanawa, imoto, ukwakhiwa kokuhombisa kunye nezinye. amasimi, kwaye isisiseko semathiriyeli eyimfuneko kubuchwephesha bokusika.
