Fiberglass strips are a type of fiber-reinforced plastic (FRP) that use glass fibers as the reinforcement material. They are produced by a process called pultrusion, which involves pulling the fibers through a resin bath and then through a heated die to form the desired shape and size. Fiberglass strips have many advantages over traditional metal and wood materials, such as:

Lightweight: Fiberglass strips are much lighter than steel and aluminum, which reduces the transportation and installation costs and improves the fuel efficiency of vehicles.

High strength: Fiberglass strips have high tensile, flexural, and impact strength, which makes them suitable for various structural and load-bearing applications.

High elasticity: Fiberglass strips have high elasticity and can withstand repeated bending and twisting without breaking or deforming.

Corrosion-resistant: Fiberglass strips are resistant to corrosion, rust, rot, and decay, which extends their service life and reduces the maintenance costs.

Stable dimensional accuracy: Fiberglass strips have low thermal expansion and contraction, which means they retain their shape and size under different temperature and humidity conditions.

Precision engineering: Fiberglass strips can be customized to meet specific requirements of shape, size, color, and surface finish. They can also be easily cut, drilled, or machined to fit different applications.

Insulated and non-conductive: Fiberglass strips are electrically insulated and non-conductive, which makes them safe to use in electrical and electronic applications.

Easy to maintain: Fiberglass strips are easy to clean and do not require painting or coating. They also have good weather resistance and UV resistance, which prevents fading and cracking.

Attractive design: Fiberglass strips have a smooth and glossy surface that can be dyed or printed with various colors and patterns. They can also be molded into different shapes and textures to create aesthetic effects.

Fiberglass Strips Performance and Specifications
 

The performance and specifications of fiberglass strips depend on the type of resin, fiber, filler, and facing material used in their production. The following table shows some common types of fiberglass strips and their properties:
 

Type	Resin	Fiber	Filler	Facing	Density (g/cm3)	Tensile Strength (MPa)	Flexural Strength (MPa)	Thermal Conductivity (W/mK)
Epoxy	Epoxy	E-glass	None	None	1.8-2.0	600-800	800-1000	0.3-0.4
Polyester	Polyester	E-glass	None	None	1.6-1.8	400-600	600-800	0.2-0.3
Vinyl ester	Vinyl ester	E-glass	None	None	1.7-1.9	500-700	700-900	0.25-0.35
Phenolic	Phenolic	E-glass	None	None	1.8-2.0	500-700	700-900	0.3-0.4
Silicone foam	Silicone foam	E-glass fabric	Adhesive	Aluminum foil or paper	0.06-0.12	0.5-1.5	1.5-4.5	0.04-0.08

The above table is for reference only, as the actual performance and specifications may vary depending on the manufacturer and the application.

 

Fiberglass Strips Applications

Fiberglass strips are widely used in various industries and fields, such as:

Construction: Fiberglass strips are used as structural components, such as beams, columns, trusses, joists, studs, rafters, etc., as well as decorative elements, such as panels, cladding, siding, roofing, etc.

Transportation: Fiberglass strips are used as parts of vehicles, such as frames, chassis, bumpers, spoilers, fenders, doors, hoods, etc., as well as accessories, such as luggage racks, bike racks, ski racks, etc.

Electrical: Fiberglass strips are used as insulation materials, such as cable trays, ducts, conduits, switchboards, transformers, etc., as well as support materials, such as poles, towers, masts, etc.

Sports: Fiberglass strips are used as equipment for various sports activities such as golf clubs shafts , fishing rods , bows , arrows , hockey sticks , skis , snowboards , etc.

Agriculture: Fiberglass strips are used as tools and devices for agricultural purposes, such as greenhouses , trellises , stakes , fences , etc.

Other: Fiberglass strips are used for many other applications, such as tents , umbrellas , flags , signs , displays , furniture , ladders , etc.
