What Is Fiberglass Pipe?

FRP pipe is a light, high, corrosion-resistant non-metallic pipe. The glass fiber is combined with the resin matrix and is wound on the rotating mandrel layer by layer according to the process requirements, and the quartz sand is evenly spread between the fibers as a sand layer. Its pipe wall structure is advanced and reasonable, which can give full play to the role of materials, improve the rigidity under the premise of meeting the strength of use, and ensure the stability and reliability of the product. FRP sand-filled pipes have excellent chemical corrosion resistance, are lightweight, have high power, no scaling, and have substantial impact resistance. Compared with ordinary steel pipes, they have a long service life, low comprehensive cost, fast installation, and safety and reliability.

What is FRP?

FRP refers to raw materials such as resin, yarn (commonly known as glass fiber), curing agent, color paste (the color of the grille is prepared here and can be customized), calcium powder (ie stone powder), and other raw materials, which are processed through a unique process. A kind of profile with different shapes, specifications, and thicknesses.

Fiberglass pipes are mainly used in petroleum, chemical, drainage, and other industries. Glass pipes are developing rapidly in my country, the output is increasing year by year, and the scope of application and industries are also becoming more and more extensive.

Advantages of FRP

FRP has high corrosion resistance, which makes FRP products unaffected and free from corrosion in chemical environments. FRP is a composite material, which uses glass fiber and glass cloth, tape, felt, and yarn as reinforcement materials and synthetic resin as the base material. Because its strength is equivalent to steel, it also contains glass, and it has the same color, shape, corrosion resistance, electrical insulation, heat preservation, and other characteristics as glass, so it is vividly called “glass fiber reinforced plastic“.

Because of its long service life, low cost, reliable performance, no maintenance, beautiful appearance, designable, easy to clean, can be used as a structural material, corrosion resistance, and other advantages, it is also widely used in civil construction, production, breeding, living and other fields.

Fiberglass pipes are made of glass fiber and quartz sand by special technology.
