FRP products are suitable for a variety of occasions and environments, and different types of products can be selected for different use requirements.
Molded fiberglass grating is the older of the two processes. This type of FRP grating is available in square and rectangular grid patterns and provides equal strength in both directions. Its one-piece construction interlocks the strands for optimum strength. Molded FRP is lightweight and easily fabricated.
Pultrusion is a continuous molding process that makes use of glass or fiber reinforcement formed in a polyester or vinyl ester resin matrix. Marco offers pultruded grating in two standard resin systems that comply with Class 1 Flame Spread Rating in accordance with ASTM E-84 test standards. You can choose pultrusion molding in either a T-Bar or I-Bar profile.
Phenolic fiberglass grating can either be molded or pulturded. The key benefit of phenolic FRP is its resistance to heat. Therefore, it is commonly used where high temperatures arise or are possible. Phenolic grating is widely used in the oil and gas industry for this reason. Marco offers phenolic fiberglass that is U.S. Coast Guard Approved.
Fiberglass structural shapes are manufactured by the pultrusion process and have corrosion fighting properties. Marco offers FRP structurals that are lightweight (1/3 of steel) and pound for pound as strong as their steel counterparts. These structural shapes are the best long-lasting option.
Fiberglass stair treads and stair tread covers are the best solutions for slippery stairs. FRP stairs come in molded or pultruded options and with either a meniscus top non-skid or a gritted top non-skid. Their safety aspects, corrosion resistance, and long-lasting ability make them the best cost-saving solution for commercial or industrial applications.
Fiberglass ladder systems are lightweight and easy to install. These caged ladder systems require less maintenance and upkeep making them the best, cost-effective solution. They have non-slip rung surfaces, flame retardant resins, and UV inhibitors. Marco offers custom options as well as modular kits for fast, hassle-free installation.
Fiberglass handrail systems are manufactured by the pultrusion process and are made from structural components. Marco Specialty Steel constructs these handrails from your blueprints or drawings to produce the best, long-lasting guardrail.
