Types and Benefits of Fiberglass / FRP Gratings

Fiberglass Reinforced plastic gratings are manufactured by a composite mixture of resin and fiberglass. The reason behind excessive use of Fiberglass gratings in the industries is its numerous benefits. The most important feature is its non-corrosiveness which makes FRP or Fiberglass gratings highly valuable to industrial clients. Consequently, individuals use them in hazardous and corrosive environment. By utilizing fiberglass moulded gratings, the maintenance expenses are brought down easily.

Individuals can use basic tools for installing Fiberglass gratings. These are easy to install and require less manpower. Also, there is no such requirement for welding these gratings during installation. You don&#;t need to clean it every time or paint it often. Fiberglass gratings don&#;t need any maintenance or special caring. These are extremely light in weight unlike steel gratings. FRP/ GRP Fiberglass gratings are economical as compared to steel or aluminium gratings.

The non-corrosive and non-conductive features make fiberglass grating more useful and best suited for harsh weather conditions. Power industries and chemical industries can use these gratings in their unit premises. These gratings also offered with an anti-slip feature that prevents any mishaps while walking. There is no risk of falling or skidding over Fiberglass gratings.

These are comfortable for walking and durable products manufactured with quality raw materials. The manufacturers are making several kinds of Fiberglass gratings and make them available in the market for clients. These are:

• FRP Fiberglass gratings
• FRP pultruded gratings
• FRP molded gratings
• FRP heavy duty gratings

FRP Fiberglass gratings are extensively utilized in walkways, trench covers, stairways, platforms and flooring. Whereas FRP molded gratings are used in chemical industries where oils and chemicals are highly utilized. It is an industrial product that one can avail at lower prices from manufacturers. FRP pultruded gratings are highly used in offshore rig plants, power plants, oil and gas industry and in various architectural structures.FRP heavy duty gratings are suited for water treatment plants, food industries, chemical factories, and more.

The purpose of glass reinforced plastic grille

Glass fiber reinforced plastic (FRP) grid, also known as glass steel grid plate, is a kind of glass fiber reinforced material, unsaturated polyester resin as the matrix, after special processing composite material with a lot of space, glass steel grid plate has the advantages of light weight, corrosion resistance, easy installation, safe use. It is widely used in urban construction, chemical industry, power industry, paper industry, Marine exploration, sewage treatment and other industries of the working platform, equipment platform, drilling platform, corridor and so on. FRP grille can be used as a structural material for floors, trench covers, platforms, ship decks, stairs, trestles and so on in corrosive environments. With corrosion resistance and flame retardant, no magnetic insulation, color s bright sample, a variety of styles and forms of alternative features. The grille is made of glass fiber crisscrossed, resin pouring and moulded as a whole. The grille plate with many regular rectangular and square Spaces is produced, and has bidirectional homogeneity mechanical characteristics.

 

The advantages of FRP grating

· Corrosion resistance:It has excellent corrosion resistance of acid, alkali, organic solvent and salt and many other gas and liquid media, and has incomparable advantages in the field of corrosion resistance. According to the requirements of the actual use occasions, the use of o-benzene type, m-benzene type, vinyl type resin can be economically selected as the matrix material.

· Light weight and high strength: The density of fiberglass grating is not more than 2, only 1/4 of steel and 2/3 of aluminum. Its strength is 10 times that of rigid PVC, and its absolute strength exceeds the level of aluminum and ordinary steel.

· Aging resistance: Service life of more than 50 years.

· Flame retardant: The flame propagation rate of common flame retardant grille (ASTM E-84) shall not exceed 25; The flame propagation rate of advanced flame retardant vinyl grille does not exceed 10. Oxygen index not less than 28 (GB ).

· Safety:Excellent electrical insulation, no breakdown under 10KV voltage; Non-electromagnetic, can be used in magnetic sensitive equipment; The special structure of FRP grating also has the characteristics of anti-slip, anti-fatigue and so on.

· Easy installation:This kind of product is very simple to install, not only reduces the worker's work intensity, but also does not need to use lifting equipment.

· Comprehensive economic benefit is good:Compared with ordinary carbon steel, FRP grille comprehensive cost is low, although its one-time investment is higher than ordinary carbon steel, because of its long service life, generally can be used for twenty years, and no maintenance, so its comprehensive economic benefit is much better than the use of carbon steel.

The disadvantages of FRP grating

Strictly speaking, there is only one shortcoming, and this shortcoming is also a common problem of all FRP products, that is, there is no value of recycling. Although the performance of the product is almost perfect in all aspects, it is difficult to reuse. After defining the advantages and disadvantages of a product, how to turn the disadvantages into advantages of a product is a key problem. In this paper, we summarize how to turn the disadvantage of the grille plate without recycling value into the advantage in the application. When FRP grille board is used in urban greening, as a tree grate (i.e., tree protection board), the disadvantage of no recovery value can naturally turn into an advantage. Glass fiber reinforced plastic cover plate is also widely used as a car wash grille.
