Glass Fiber Rebar

EESF® Glass Fiber Rebar is a Reinforcement bar, it's manufactured from E-glass Roving impregnated in an Epoxy resin Matrix. Glass Fiber Rebar produced in various diameters from (Ø= 6 mm to Ø= 40 mm)

Product Data:

• Density:               19 -20 kg/m3
• Tensile Strength:  800 – 1300 N/mm²

Usage:

• Slab on grade applications such as parking slabs, side- walks, driveways, and paving.
• Masonry reinforcement.
• Precast and architectural concrete reinforcement
• Road construction.
• Concrete frames such as foam concrete cover slabs, floor slabs, and monolithic foundations.
• Strengthening shorelines
• Creating hydraulic structures and road construction reinforced concrete products

Advantages

• High corrosion resistance: GFRP is not subject to corrosion; there- fore, the protective layer of the concrete can be reduced
• High tensile strength: The composite reinforcement has 3 times the tensile strength of steel reinforcement
• Dielectric: A non-conductive insulator that sepa-rates conductive materials in electrical components, preventing the flow of electric current..
• High chemical resistance: Composite reinforcement is resistant to chlorides, acids, and chemicals. It can be used in acidic and alkaline environments
• Non-magnetic: Composite reinforcement does not conduct heat and, compared to steel, does not lose its properties at very low temperatures. The coefficient of thermal expansion is similar to that of concrete, preventing any damage to the concrete itself.
• Product lightness: With equal strength to steel rebars, it is 9 times lighter, saving transportation and handling costs.

Packing

Due to the rebar's properties, it can be twisted into coils without losing its strength. GFRP can be supplied and packed as follows:

• In coils of 50m or 100m - for up to 10mm diameter.
• In rods of 12m or 6m (for any diame- ter) in bundles of 10 or 25 rods.
• In various lengths according to the project requirements and the client's needs.
