Fibre Glass Pultruded Products
Fibre Glass Pultruded Products
Fiberglass pultruded profiles (structural
shapes) are manufactured with the pultrusion process. Glass mat
and roving are drawn through a resin bath and pulled through a
heated die to form the desired shape.
Fibrecomposite's pultruded profiles are available in a wide variety of shapes, including I beam, equal angle, channel, square tube, round tube, and many other shapes.. They are dimensionally stable and easy to install.
Fibre Glass pultruded composites versus steel or aluminium
Composites consist of at least two different component materials which in the case of 'fibre glass' combine to produce a strong, rigid product.
Fibre Glass makes up a significant portion of the composites used in industry today. In fibre glass products the resin or 'matrix' transfers the shear and the glass fibres resist the tensile and compressive loads.
When using fibre glass composite materials instead of materials such as steel, or timber, there are significant reductions in weight due to the properties of the component materials.
Because it is a combination of materials, a composite product can be designed in specific shapes for different purposes, while providing a number of advantages compared to materials such as aluminium, steel or timber, such as resistance to chemicals, as well as electrical and thermal insulating properties.
The expert team at Fibre Composites can produce composite moulded products from design through to completion. With pattern makers, mould fabricators and production experts on hand in our facility your new product can be skillfully under way without the delay of outsourcing specialist skills.
Continuous production is a specialty at Fibre Composites where our up to date facility can handle small to large production runs.

- A strong, rigid product
- Dimensional stability
- Lightweight (weighs 80% less than steel),
- High strength
- Can be designed in specific shapes for different purposes
- Resistance to chemicals - corrosion resistance in high acidic environments
- Electrical and thermal insulating properties.
- Many different structural and aesthetic components available.
- Available in many colours
- Does not rust or require painting and other maintenance.
Uses
Utilising the fibeglass pultruded products and profiles mechanical and physical properties and characteristics, structural engineers have incorporated FRP structural components, products, and systems into extremely varied and wide ranges of applications and projects.
Architects and Engineers are able to take advantage of the characteristics of fibeglass pultruded products and profiles over conventional materials such as structural steel, stainless steel, aluminum, concrete and timber.
Over the last decade, most construction markets and application providers have perceived FRP pultruded products not as a value engineered substitute for conventional materials, but as a targeted, first choice, specified material.
