Description

This premium high-performance glass fibre square bar is engineered for demanding structural and mechanical applications where strength, stability and reliability are essential. Manufactured from high-quality glass fibre composite, it offers an excellent balance of rigidity and impact resistance in a compact square profile.

Lightweight yet incredibly durable, this glass fibre bar provides outstanding corrosion resistance and electrical insulation, making it an ideal alternative to metal in harsh or sensitive environments. Commonly used in construction, fabrication, marine, electrical and general engineering projects, it is easy to cut, machine and integrate into new or existing assemblies.

Product Features

  • Square bar profile with precise 6.35 mm x 6.35 mm dimensions for accurate, repeatable fitting.
  • Available standard lengths of 2 x 2500 mm or 5000 mm to suit both smaller projects and extended runs.
  • Manufactured from high-performance glass fibre composite for excellent mechanical properties.
  • Lightweight construction offering high strength-to-weight ratio compared with traditional metals.
  • Outstanding corrosion and moisture resistance, ideal for outdoor or chemically exposed environments.
  • Good electrical insulation characteristics for use around electrical equipment and installations.
  • Easy to cut, drill and machine using standard workshop tools for straightforward fabrication.

Key Features and Benefits

  • Reduces overall structure weight while maintaining strength, helping to improve efficiency and handling.
  • Resists rust, rot and many common chemicals, reducing maintenance needs and extending service life.
  • Non-conductive properties improve safety when used near electrical systems or sensitive equipment.
  • Stable performance across a wide range of temperatures makes it suitable for indoor and outdoor use.
  • Consistent square profile and tight dimensional control support accurate alignment and clean assemblies.
  • Supplied in convenient standard lengths to minimise waste and optimise cutting plans on site or in the workshop.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I cut the glass fibre square bar to shorter lengths myself?

Yes. The bar can be cut using common workshop tools such as a fine-toothed hacksaw or powered saw with a suitable blade. It is advisable to wear appropriate personal protective equipment and to support the bar securely while cutting to ensure a clean, accurate finish.

Is this glass fibre square bar suitable for outdoor use?

Yes. The glass fibre composite offers excellent resistance to moisture and corrosion, making it suitable for long-term outdoor use in many environments. As with any material, performance will depend on the specific conditions, so it is sensible to review the application requirements before installation.

Can the bar be drilled or machined for fixings and fittings?

Yes. The bar can be drilled, shaped and machined using standard tools, allowing you to create holes, slots or other features for fixings and fittings. Using sharp tools and appropriate speeds will help maintain clean edges and minimise surface damage.
