Fibre Reinforced Plastic (FRP)

EzyStrut has a complete range of NEMA 2 FRP Cable Ladder.

Fibre Reinforced Plastic (FRP) has excellent corrosion resistance to a wide range of chemicals and is ideally suited to environments containing sulphuric, hydrochloric and phosphoric acids.

FRP is produced from a combination of fibreglass reinforcements and thermosetting resins.

Since its introduction, this new age product has gained wide acceptance for its superior benefits and is presently used all over the world.

Pultrusion is a process whereby glass fibre (roving) is continuously pulled through a liquid resin bath until it reaches a heated die at the end on the line. Here the resin is solidified into the different profiles according to the various moulds.

This continuous process provides higher strength resulting in a reinforced structure which is capable of taking heavy loads.

The Benefits of using Pultrusion FRP Cable Support Products

Corrosion Resistant
FRP is suitable for a wide range of enviromental conditions.

Lightweight and Durable
FRP's lightweight allows for easy transport, handling, and installtion.

Cost Effective
High resistance to corrosion, and lightweight transportation can result in total life-cost savings.

High Strength to Weight Ratio
High glass content maintains superior strength and continuous reinforcement gives our pultruded FRP products extremely high strength and stiffness while maintaining a very low weight.

Low Thermal Conductivity
FRP will not build up high levels of heat when under direct sunlight or other strong heat sources.

Non Conductive
EzyStrut FRP complies with international electrical safety specifications, having no sharp edges which could damage cables. The product is also nonmagnetic, and cannot interfere with radio waves.
