FRP Round Tubes/GRP Pipes

Product Merits:

• Light weight - Fiberglass pipe weighs only about one-quarter as much as similar steel products. This reduces the cost of handling, supporting, and installation.
• Strength to weight ratio - Fiberglass pipe has a higher ratio of strength to weight than carbon or stainless steels.
• Dimensional Stability - Fiberglass pipe can maintain the critical tolerances required of the most demanding applications.
• Electrical properties - Standard fiberglass pipe is nonconductive.

3. GRP pipes are being used for a diverse range of applications as follows: 

• Water supply (cross country transmission and distribution) - municipal, industrial and agricultural
• Wastewater / Sewerage collection - domestic and industrial
• Drainage
• Irrigation
• Storm water
• Sea water intake/outfalls - circulating cooling water for power and petrochemical industries
• Penstocks - hydroelectric power generation
• Firefighting
• Slip lining - sewer renewal and structural reinforcement for pressure pipes
• Micro tunneling - pipe jacking

GRP Pipes are commonly used in petrochemical, oil refineries, oil transportation where resistance to crude oil, paraffin build-up as well as ability to withstand relatively high pressures is required.
