Fiberglass rods are widely used in agriculture, construction, electrical and other industries. the performance is very different such as high strength ,anti UV, insulation etc . Every performance are require different raw materials, Most of the fiberglass rods on the market cannot meet special requirements , if you need high strength fiberglass rod or something else you need to customize it , Our factory cover most of the general types of fiberglass rods. Below I will introduce the difference between them, and you will find the fiberglass rod you need here.
Fiberglass rod is made of fiberglass yarn and resin by mold heating and curing. At present, the main production process of fiberglass rod is pultrusion. The worker first calculates the number of yarn required according to the size of fiberglass rod, and then passes a fixed number of yarn through the forming mold Before passing through the mold, the yarn should be contaminated with a certain amount of resin. When the resin is brought into the mold, the resin solidifies due to the high temperature of the mold, thus forming the fiberglass yarn into fiberglass rod.
The length of the fiberglass rod is not limited, we even can make a rod with length more than 1000 meters, if the out diameter you need is not in the below list, please contact us directly !

Raw materials
Fiberglass Yarn
There are two kinds of glass fiber yarns that we often use, E-glass ( alkali-free ) and C-glass ( medium-alkali ). The strength of E-glass products is about 10-20% higher than that of C-glass products.
Resin
There are roughly 4 types of commonly used resins, unsaturated resins, vinyl resins, polyurethane resins, and epoxy resins. The strength of the glass fiber rods made from these resins ranges from low to high.
In addition, according to clients requirements we will using different fillers during production, such as flame retardant, UV resistant, fluorescent, etc.
Light weight and high strength
The relative density is around 1.9, only 1 / 4 ~ 1 / 5 of carbon steel, but the tensile strength is close to or even better, and the specific strength can be compared with high-grade alloy steel. Therefore, it has excellent effect in the application of aviation, rocket, spacecraft, high pressure vessel and other products that need to reduce self weight. The tensile, flexural and compressive strength of some epoxy FRP can reach more than 400MPa.
Good corrosion resistance
FRP is a good corrosion-resistant material, which has good resistance to atmosphere, water, general concentration of acid, alkali, salt, a variety of oils and solvents. It has been applied to all aspects of chemical anti-corrosion and is replacing carbon steel, stainless steel, wood, non-ferrous metals, etc.
Good electrical performance
It is an excellent insulating material, used to make insulators. Good dielectric property can be protected at high frequency. Microwave transmission is good and has been widely used in radome.
Good thermal performance
The thermal conductivity of FRP is low, which is 1.25 ~ 1.67kj / (m · h · K) at room temperature, only 1 / 100 ~ 1 / 1000 of metal, so it is an excellent thermal insulation material. In the case of instantaneous ultra-high temperature, it is an ideal thermal protection and ablation resistant material, which can protect the spacecraft from the erosion of high-speed airflow above 2000 ℃.
Good designability
Excellent technology
Because of its unique performance advantages, fiberglass rods have been widely used in more than ten industries, such as aerospace, railway, decorative architecture, home furniture, advertising display, craft gifts, building materials and sanitary ware, yacht berthing, sports materials, environmental sanitation engineering and so on, and are highly praised. They have become the demand pet of businessmen in the material industry in the new era. FRP products are also different from traditional materials, and are much better than traditional products in performance, use and life. It is easy to shape, can be customized, color deployment at will, favored by businesses and sellers, occupies an increasing market share, broad prospects!
