In corrosive and electrically sensitive environments, traditional metal fasteners often become a point of failure. FRP threaded rods are specifically used in these conditions due to their resistance to corrosion, non-conductive properties, and stable mechanical behavior. This article reviews common application scenarios where fiberglass threaded rods are specified and explains why they are preferred in chemical, marine, wastewater, and electrical installations.
Fiberglass threaded rods are non-metallic fastening components designed for use in corrosive, electrical, and demanding industrial environments. Manufactured from glass fiber reinforced polymer composites, they provide corrosion resistance, electrical insulation, and consistent mechanical performance. This article provides a technical overview of fiberglass threaded rods, covering their structure, thread design, material systems, size options, mechanical properties, and common accessories used in practical installations.
Threaded fiberglass rods combine strength, insulation, and corrosion resistance for fastening and structural applications. Find out the available sizes, performance characteristics, and use cases in power systems, marine environments, and beyond.
