Introducing Fiberglass Pipe - FRP (Fiberglass Reinforced Plastic) Pipe

After years of serving corrosion-related industries, we noticed there seemed to be no easy approach to selecting and designing fiberglass reinforced plastic (FRP) pipe (also known as GRP pipes). Most plants have worked with fabricators and engineers to custom design all fiberglass pipe (FRP) equipment. Yet there is considerable cost and effort to custom design fiberglass pipe or a fiberglass pipe system and it is not always necessary. we have found there are many applications where a standard FRP pipe product will meet all of the requirements. 

It is a standard production fiberglass pipe with custom corrosion resistance. Simple to specify and select, this fiberglass pipe is ideal for new system installation or replacement of existing pipe. The pipe will meet many of the applications and life-span requirements at your plant or facility.

For special design requirements, it also offers custom fiberglass pipe solutions. Custom fiberglass pipe solutions may require thicker corrosion or abrasion barriers with different resins. Also, heavier structural laminates and special glass reinforcements are available to meet installation and temperature requirements. we can provide design recommendations for a proposed installation.

And because we understand the industries we serve, our products are designed to meet the most demanding and specialized conditions at each site. In standard pipe, custom pipe, special header systems, duct or stacks, we deliver long-term corrosion solutions and absolute maximum product life. We call this "performance-based manufacturing."

Key attributes

Corrosion Resistance

Our fiberglass pipe ( fiberglass reinforced plastic pip - FRP) is designed to be "user friendly." The resin, glass reinforcement
materials and composite construction were selected to provide consistent corrosion resistance for the majority
of chemical applications for which FRP pipe is considered appropriate. There remain certain extreme chemical services
for which special construction and alternative resins should be considered. Fibrex can advise if this is required for
your application

Weather Resistance

The pipe utilizes a heavily resinated exterior coat containing an ultraviolet stabilizer to impart long term
resistance to the effects of sunlight and other weathering elements. Should pipe become weathered after many years in
particularly severe environments, the exterior can be sanded and resin coated or painted.

Color

Pigmented exterior gel coats are not used on IntegraLine pipe in order to take advantage of the natural translucency
of FRP. Visual inspection of the pipe, both new and after years of service, is more reliable with a "natural" laminate.
Additionally, the liquid contents can often be observed in the pipeline… sometimes a process control advantage.
When special color coding is required, however, this can be provided at a nominal added cost and slightly longer
delivery time.

Durability

The high tensile elongation properties of the vinyl ester resins utilized in the pipe impart a superior
toughness to the pipe enabling it to resist cracking and crazing of the resin when subjected to heavy design loads.
In addition to high fatigue resistance, this toughness also provides a safety factor against impact damage during
shipping and installation.

Resin

Our pipe is manufactured with a premium vinyl ester resin as the standard production resin. Other vinyl ester resins specified by the customer are available, however delivery lead times will generally be longer. Epoxy vinyl ester resins are premium corrosion resistant resins. At both room and elevated temperatures, these resins offer resistance to a broad range of acids, alkalis, bleaches and solvents making them the appropriate  choice of resins in many chemical processing industry applications. These
resins, when properly formulated and cured, comply with FDA regulation 21 CFR 177.2420 covering materials intended
for repeated use in contact with food. Specific chemical resistance information can be found in the Chemical Resistance
and Engineering Guides, available from FIBREX or directly from the resin manufacturers.

Product Model

   
Advantage

• High Strength & Lightweight:Tensile strength is 2-3 times higher than that of steel, providing greater structural reliability.Roughly one-quarter the weight of steel, making transport and installation easier.

• Corrosion Resistance:Resistant to acids, alkalis, and salt corrosion-ideal for harsh environments like marine structures.

• Non-Conductive & Non-Magnetic:Suitable for environments sensitive to electromagnetic interference, such as hospitals and power stations.

• Thermal Stability:Has a thermal expansion coefficient similar to concrete, reducing cracking risk.

• Durability and High Construction Efficiency:UV and aging resistant, with a service life much longer than conventional steel.Custom lengths, lightweight handling-reduces labor and boosts installation speed.

• Cannot Be Bent On-Site:Cannot be heat-bent; all bent shapes must be prefabricated.

• Lower Shear Strength:Lower transverse shear strength than steel; requires special joint design.

• Lower Modulus of Elasticity:Lower stiffness may lead to larger deflections if not properly designed.

• Limited Connection Methods:Cannot be welded; mechanical or epoxy-based joints are required.

• Higher Initial Cost:Higher material cost than steel, but offset by longer service life and reduced maintenance.

    Basalt fiber rebar enhances structural performance by bearing tensile loads and bonding effectively with concrete through its textured surface. Its thermal expansion closely matches that of concrete, reducing cracking risks. With excellent corrosion resistance, it's ideal for harsh environments. Prefabrication allows for easy installation, while mechanical connections ensure construction efficiency and long-term reliability.

   Areas Of Product Application

• Marine and Hydraulic Engineering:Used in ports, seawalls, desalination plants, and underwater tunnels due to its excellent corrosion resistance.

• Transportation Infrastructure:Ideal for bridges, tunnels, road barriers, and bridge deck reinforcements.

• Chemical and Power Facilities:Perfect for environments with chemical exposure or electrical insulation needs, like substations and power plants.

• Civil and Industrial Buildings:Used in basements, warehouses, underground corridors, and damp environments.

• Rail and Metro Construction:Applicable in tunnels and track systems where non-magnetic properties are needed.

• Special Environment Projects:Suited for foundations in saline-alkaline or highly corrosive soil areas.

• Green Building & Eco Projects:Eco-friendly structures requiring non-toxic, sustainable reinforcement solutions.
