Fiberglass studs and nuts for mechanical fastenings

First used in 1977, FIBREBOLT fiberglass studs and nuts are ideal for applications requiring mechanical fasteners that must be non-corrosive, low in conductivity, and/or transparent to electromagnetic waves. FIBREBOLT studs are machined from pultruded fiberglass vinyl ester rods. The hex shaped nut is thermoplastic.

Fiberglass gritted plate

Fiberglass gritted plate is a tough, corrosion resistant floor plate. SAFPLATE's unique combination of pultruded fiberglass plate and an anti-skid grit surface creates textured solid sheet flooring that is ideal for both wet and dry environments. Used in a variety of applications such as trench covers to contain vapors and fumes or pedestrian bridge walkways for sure footing, SAFPLATE provides a long-lasting, low maintenance alternative to steel plate for severe, corrosive environments. Applications: Walkways  Splash Walls  Overpasses Bridge Decks Pool Decks Trench Covers Odor Control Covers Materials of Construction SAFPLATE is available as solid plate or bonded to DURAGRID grating. Surface grits are available in urethane fine or medium (for light pedestrian applications), as well as epoxy fine, medium, coarse (#4) or extra coarse (#3).

Fiberglass overlapping deck material

Strongwell's SAFDECK is a specially designed system of 24" wide, slip resistant, fiberglass panels that overlap for a continuous solid surface. SAFDECK is intended to replace wood, aluminum or steel decking in environments where corrosion or rotting creates costly maintenance problems or unsafe conditions. Non-conductive and non-sparking, SAFDECK® provides safe walkways in applications near electrical lines. SAFDECK is available in 1-1/8" deep panels in 24" widths.

Fiberglass ladder and cage systems

SAFRAIL fiberglass ladders and ladder cages mounted on the sides of tanks and buildings are a common sight in a wide range of industries. Fiberglass ladder and ladder cage systems have been in use since the 1950’s in chemical plants and other corrosive environments. Even in complete immersion applications, fiberglass has outlasted aluminum and steel and required little or no maintenance. SAFRAIL ladders are fabricated in a standard 18" (457mm) rung width configuration with 12" (305mm) rung spacings.

Cladding attachment support systems

Strongwell’s STRONGIRT is the ideal continuous insulation (CI) cladding attachment support system. This all-FRP (fiberglass) pultruded composite uses a custom fire-retardant resin system and unique laminate design to offer superior pull out strength, excellent thermal efficiency, and the ability to work with any non-proprietary insulation (no routing or fabricating of rigid insulation is required). The geometry of STRONGIRT offers self-draining to clear rainwater, and weep holes can be pre-fabricated or added in the field for additional drainage needs.

Interlocking fiberglass planks

First used in 2000, SAFPLANK is a high strength system of fiberglass planks designed to interlock to form a continuous solid surface. SAFPLANK is intended to replace wood, aluminum, or steel planks in environments where corrosion or rotting creates costly maintenance problems or unsafe conditions. SAFPLANK is available in 2" deep panels measuring 12" or 24" wide.

DURASHIELD® Fiberglass Foam Core Building Panels

In production since 1989, DURASHIELD® is a tongue-and-groove fiberglass pultruded panel comprised of a pultruded skin over a foam core. Available in 1" x 12" and 3" x 24" sizes, the pultruded fiberglass skin of these panels is available in either a premium polyester or vinyl ester resin. Both resin systems are flame retardant (UL 94 V-0).

Fiberglass structural shapes and plate

EXTREN is the registered trade name for a proprietary line of standard pultruded fiberglass structural shapes and plate produced by Strongwell. The EXTREN line consists of more than 100 different fiberglass shapes, each with a very specific, proprietary composite design. EXTREN replaces steel, aluminum, and wood in a wide variety of structural applications.
