What do you need from me to quote FRP profiles or handrails?
Please send the profile type and size (for example angle 50 x 50 x 6 mm or C channel), the length of each piece, the quantity, the application, and the delivery location. For handrails, ladders or cable trays, a BQ or drawing lets us quote item by item.
Which FRP profiles do you supply?
Angle bars, C channels, flat bars, square and round hollow tubes, solid rods, I-beams and deck planks, plus handrails, caged ladders, cable trays and cable ladders made from them.
Why use FRP instead of steel?
FRP is much lighter than steel, does not rust, does not conduct electricity and resists many chemicals and salt air, so it needs little maintenance in wet or corrosive sites.
What colour are FRP profiles?
RAL 7035 light grey as standard. Other colours are made on request, subject to quantity.
Is a fire-retardant version available?
Yes. Profiles in fire-retardant resin to ASTM E84 are made on request, and vinyl ester resin is available for stronger chemicals.
Can you make a size that is not listed?
Tell us the section, length and quantity you need. Special sections depend on the dies available and the order quantity, and we can cut profiles to length before delivery.
Can you fabricate profiles into frames, handrails or supports?
Yes. We cut and fabricate profiles into frames, supports, handrails and platforms. Send us a drawing or sketch.
What is your standard FRP ladder?
450 mm wide with 50 x 50 mm square side rails and gritted round rungs, in 2, 4 or 6 m lengths or custom. Safety cage rings are 450 mm in diameter, at least 2 rings, 450 mm apart.
Can FRP be cut and drilled on site?
Yes, with standard power tools. Wear a dust mask and seal cut edges and holes with resin to protect the fibres.
Do you supply FRP cable trays and cable ladders?
Yes, with fittings. Cable trays come in widths from 50 to 1,200 mm and depths from 50 to 150 mm, in isophthalic, vinyl ester or halogen-free resin. Tell us the cables, tray width and run length and we propose a size.
Can you export to Singapore and other countries?
Yes. Export orders are quoted on request, with shipping terms such as FOB, CIF or ex-works.
What sizes of FRP angle, C channel and flat bar do you have?
Equal angle bars come in 2 x 2 in (50.8 mm), 3 x 3 in (76.2 mm) and 4 x 4 in (101.6 mm), all 6.35 mm thick. C channels run from 2C (50.8 x 25.4 mm) to 8C (203.2 x 55.56 mm), in 4.76, 6.35, 9 and 9.53 mm wall thicknesses depending on size. Flat bars include 76.2 x 6.35 mm and 101.6 x 6.35 mm. Square and round hollow tubes, solid rods and I-beams are also listed.
