1. A hybrid reinforcing fabric comprising:
a plurality of first fibers oriented in a first direction;
a plurality of second fibers oriented in the first direction;
a plurality of third fibers oriented in a second direction; and
a stitching yarn maintaining the first fibers, the second fibers, and the third fibers in their respective orientations,
wherein the first fibers are one of glass fibers and carbon fibers,
wherein the second fibers are carbon fibers,
wherein the third fibers are at least one of glass fibers and carbon fibers,
wherein the first direction is 0 degrees,
wherein the second direction is greater than 0 degrees and less than or equal to 90 degrees,
wherein the first fibers and the second fibers constitute between 91 wt. % and 99.5 wt. % of the fabric,
wherein the third fibers constitute between 0.5 wt. % and 9 wt. % of the fabric,
wherein the glass fibers constitute between 3 wt. % to 95 wt. % of the fabric,
wherein the carbon fibers constitute between 5 wt. % to 97 wt. % of the fabric,
wherein a linear mass density of the first fibers is in the range of 1,200 Tex to 4,800 Tex,
wherein an areal weight of the second fibers is in the range of 80 g/m2 to 500 g/m2,
wherein the stitching yarn is a polyester yarn,
wherein the stitching yarn defines a stitching length in the range of 3 mm to 6 mm, and
wherein the stitching yarn has a linear mass density in the range of 85 dTex to 250 dTex.
