Fiber-Line™ Fiber Reinforced Polymer

Composite Fiber Rods

Fiber Reinforced Polymer (FRP) is also known as glass reinforced polymer (GRP). Traditional GRP is composed of high strength E-glass fibers impregnated with a variety of specialized proprietary resins.

Our resin chemistry is optimized for process conditions, fiber adhesion, and end-use application of the FRP. Resin impregnated fibers are chemically cured with thermal or ultraviolet energy to form a highly crosslinked thermoset matrix.

Upjacketing is available for FRP rods, and is ideal for loose tube cable designs. This extruded polymer jacketing is available up to 17.0 mm. Common resins include MDPE, HDPE, PVDF, PVC and Nylon. Low smoke, low halogen, flame rated and custom colors are also available for upjacketed composite rods.

FRP products are supplied on a variety of different size wood or plastics reels along with different lengths to meet your specific needs. Alternate package solutions are also available – contact us to learn more.
