Description
Our premium glass fibre angles are pultruded in a polyester matrix to BS EN 13706 specifications. The fibreglass layup is a combination of multi-layered cross-ply glass fibre fabrics, providing enhanced strength across the axis for excellent mechanical properties.
Glass fibre offers numerous benefits, including a lightweight construction and a high strength-to-weight ratio that ensures reliable performance even under heavy loads. Its versatility and ease of handling make it a practical, cost-effective choice for a wide range of structural applications, while its resistance to corrosion makes it ideal for demanding environments. Glass fibre can be easily machined and cut to size, allowing for customization to meet the unique requirements of your project.
Offering high performance and durability combined with ease of handling and installation, glass fibre is an ideal solution for a wide range of applications.
