Key Features
- Pre-formed custom bends (circles, arches, hoops, angles) in fiberglass composite; consistent fiber-resin bonding at bends; precise angles and dimensions; maintains glass fiber alignment for strength.
Benefits
- No on-site bending or welding needed – ensures accuracy and repeatable quality. High durability in corrosive conditions (marine, chemical plants), since the composite resists moisture and alkalinity. Reduces construction time and waste, as each piece is made to order.
Applications
- Reinforcement of curved or bent concrete structures such as circular tanks, bent columns, curved beams, retaining walls, bridge girders, and architectural forms. Ideal for precast concrete elements or complex shapes in tunnels, parking garages, and stadiums.
Technical Specifications
- Available in the same diameters as straight GFRP bars (e.g. 10–25 mm) with customizable bend radii. Fiber and resin formulations can be specified for required stiffness and corrosion environment.
Unique Selling Points (USPs)
- Combines high GFRP strength with factory-accurate curvature. Unlike steel, GFRP bent bars will not spring back or fail when shaped; they remain dimensionally stable and fully perform to design specifications. This yields safer structures (no rust) and streamlined installation.
