Disclosed are methods and devices for forming a combined polyester and fiberglass mat, in which separate polyester and fiberglass layers can be formed or polyester filaments and fiberglass threads can be mixed together by a disperser to form a polyester and fiberglass web. The polyester filaments and the fiberglass threads can be dispersed by separate dispersers on a web forming belt to form separate layers of polyester filaments and fiberglass threads, or can be dispersed by a single disperser to at least, somewhat evenly disperse, the fiberglass threads and polyester filaments.

An impact resistant roofing shingle comprising an upper shingle layer; a lower shingle layer laminated to said upper shingle layer underneath said tab portion of said upper shingle layer; wherein each of the upper shingle layer and the lower shingle layer comprise a mat, an upper asphalt coating layer applied to an exposed side of the mat, a lower asphalt coating layer applied to an unexposed side of the mat, a granular coating applied to the upper asphalt coating layer opposite the mat, and a fabric reinforcing layer applied to the lower asphalt coating layer opposite the mat. In one embodiment, the roofing shingle may also include the fabric reinforcing layer covering the entire area of each mat. The roofing shingle may have a recessed area of the exposed side of the overlay layer that aligns with the overlap of the overlay and underlay layers.

Impact resistant roofing shingle and method for making same

Disclosed is a multiple layer substrate that can be used with a top asphalt applicator that eliminates the need for a bottom asphalt applicator and fines applied to the bottom asphalt layer. A low porosity or impermeable bottom layer prevents the flow of asphalt applied to the porous top layers of the substrate from penetrating the bottom surface. This eliminates the need for fines to prevent sticking of shingles in a shingle stack. In addition, substrate layers that combine fiberglass and polyester fibers in various configurations provide a substrate that can be used in typical shingle manufacturing and manufacturing of waterproofing products that is impact resistant.
