Epoxy FRP Bolts with Nuts for Electrical Insulation and Corrosion
Resistance
"FRP bolt and nut" stands for "Fibre-reinforced plastic bolt and
nut". It refers to a type of fastener made from fibre-reinforced
plastic (FRP).
FRP is a composite material made from glassfiber and a epoxy
resin matrix. It has high strength-to-weight ratio, making it
suitable for use in demanding applications.
The bolt and nut made from FRP are corrosion-resistant and have
high mechanical strength. They are commonly used in the following
applications:
- Marine and offshore: Due to their corrosion resistance and
durability, FRP bolts and nuts are widely used in marine and
offshore applications, such as boat construction and oil rigs.
- Construction: FRP bolts and nuts are used in the construction
industry for their strength, durability, and resistance to rust and
corrosion.
- Automotive: They are used in the automotive industry for their
lightweight and high-strength properties, making them suitable for
use in suspension systems, chassis, and engines.
- Aviation: FRP bolts and nuts are used in the aviation industry for
their high strength-to-weight ratio and resistance to high
temperatures.
FRP bolts and nuts are available in various sizes and shapes to
suit different applications. They are also relatively easy to
install and can be fabricated to meet specific requirements.
However, they are more expensive than traditional metal fasteners
and may not be suitable for all applications.
