GRP PIPING SYSTEM

Eissa Fiber Glass GRP pipes are made of a combination of glass fibers and a polymer matrix. These composite material pipes are known for their exceptional resistance to corrosion, making them a popular choice for low-temperature corrosion-resistant applications. They are gradually replacing steel in services like fire and water services due to their high durability. GRE or GRP pipes are also able to withstand high pressures. The term FRP is often used interchangeably with GRP pipes. In this article, we will provide an overview of GRP Pipes.

FEATURES & BENEFITS

  • Corrosion Resistance: GRP (Fiberglass Reinforced Plastic) piping exhibits outstanding corrosion resistance, making it highly suitable for both interior and exterior applications.
  • Lightweight: Fiberglass piping’s lightweight nature offers significant advantages over traditional materials. Compared to steel products, GRP pipes weigh only one-sixth as much, and they are merely 10% of the weight of similar concrete products.
  • Electrical Properties: Standard fiberglass pipes are non-conductive. Some manufacturers offer conductive fiberglass piping systems for transporting fluids like Jet Fuel.
  • Dimensional Stability: Fiberglass material meets the most stringent material stiffness, dimensional tolerance, weight, and cost criteria.
  • Low Maintenance Cost: Fiberglass piping is easy to maintain because it does not rust, is easily cleaned, and requires minimal protection from the environment.
