1. Properties of FRP pultruded profiles
A. High strength
FRP is stronger than structural steel on a pound-for pound basis.
It has been used to buildings, walkway, sub-floors and platforms.
B. Light weight
FRP is 20-25% the weight of steel and 70% the weight of aluminum.
FRP are easily transported, handled and lifted into place. Total
structures can often be preassembled and shipped to the job site
ready to installation.
C. Anti-corrosion
FRP will not rot and are impervious to a broad range of corrosive
elements. This feature makes FRP a natural selection for indoor or
outdoor structures in pulp and paper mills, chemical plants, water
and sewage treatment plants, structural near salt water and other
corrosive environments.
D. Electro-magnetic transparency
FRP are transparent to radio waves, microwaves and other
electromagnetic. It is widely used to make antennas.
E. Non-conductive
FRP has low thermal/ electrical conductivity.
F. Dimensional stability
The coefficient of thermal expansion of FRP is slightly less than
steel and significantly less than aluminum.
G. Aesthetics
FRP are pigmented throughout the thickness of the part and can be
made to virtually any desired custom color. Special surfacing veils
are also available to create special surface appearances such as
wood grain, marble, granite, etc.
2. The products are manufactured with the pultrusion process after
choosing the correct raw materials major including the resin,
fibers and additives according to the profiles requirement
including mechanical strength, electrical insulation,
anti-corrosion etc.
3. The products can meet the customer's requirements by using
different combination of resin, fibers and others.
4. The products offer a unique combination of chemical resistance,
size stability, high strength, and thermal/electric
non-conductivity, etc.
5. The products can be used as canopy rods, underground cable
jackets, cable cores (bearing tensile stress), handles of spade and
hammer, flag pole, tent pole, fishing pole etc.
