Solid Fiberglass Round Rods
Fiberglass rods are a high-strength, lightweight, and durable material made from fiberglass-reinforced plastic (FRP).
Material Composition:
Fiberglass rods are manufactured through the pultrusion process using glass fibers and resins (such as polyester resin, epoxy resin, vinyl ester resin, etc.). The glass fibers provide strength, while the resins offer corrosion resistance and moldability.
Key Features:
High Strength: Excellent tensile and flexural strength, making them ideal for load-bearing and support applications.
Lightweight: Easy to transport, install, and handle due to their low weight.
Corrosion Resistance: Highly resistant to water, chemicals, salt spray, and other corrosive environments.
Electrical Insulation: Superior electrical insulation properties, suitable for electrical applications.
Weather Resistance: Stable performance under extreme temperatures, UV exposure, and humid conditions.
Non-Magnetic: Unaffected by electromagnetic fields, making them suitable for special environments (e.g., MRI equipment).
Customizability: Can be customized in diameter, length, color, and surface finish to meet specific requirements.
Common Specifications:
Diameter: Typically ranges from 1/8 inch to 2 inches (or larger).
Length: Customizable, with common lengths ranging from 1 meter to 6 meters.
Shapes: Round, square, rectangular, and more.
Application Fields:
Construction and Civil Engineering: Concrete reinforcement, support structures (e.g., bridges, tunnels).
Electrical and Telecommunications Industry: Insulating rods, antenna supports.
Agriculture and Horticulture: Plant support stakes, greenhouse frames.
Marine and Chemical Industry: Corrosion-resistant structural components (e.g., seawater desalination equipment, chemical plant piping supports).
