Introducing
FRP/GRP Utility Poles
No more Rusting/Corrosion! It’s Shock-proof too!
Comparison
FRP/GRP Composite Poles
Metal/Steel Poles
Rusting
No Rusting
Even after Powder Coating or Galvanising, Rusting can occur from inside
Maintenance
Completely Maintenance Free
Needs periodical Re-coating/Re-furbishing
Insulation
Completely Non-conductive, hence Electric Shock-proof and Safe
Conductive, hence Shock-prone and Unsafe
Corrosion Resistance
Completely Non-corrosive, can be used in harsh environments and locations
Highly prone to corrosion, especially in Harsh/Saline/Chemicalised/Acidic environments
Service Life
Very long, 20-25 years approximately, Maintenance Free Life
Quite short, 5-7 years approx, even less in Saline/Acidic environment, added costing incurred in Maintenance
Safety/Handling
Safe and easy handling and installation being light weight, can be easily handled by a person or two
Being very heavy, needs Lifting Machines; If Manpower is employed, chances of injury while handling/installation
Weight
About 20-25 % that of Steel
About 4 to 5 times heavier than FRP/GRP
Surface Finish
Smooth and homogeneous, not dependent on Temperature Changes
Coating falls off after some time, highly dependent on Temperature Changes
Wind Resistance
Can withstand Wind Speed up to 200 KM/HR, being light weight
Prone to get uprooted during Cyclones given its heavy weight
Bendability
Can withstand Stability even after bending up to 25 to 30 Degree
Can be bent but compromising on Stability, and hence overall life
Vehicle Impact
Can break, person in the Vehicle can be Safe
Can damage the Vehicle and can injure the person in the Vehicle
Effective Costing
Quite economical, given its Maintenance Free and longer Service Life
Quite high, given its high Maintenance and lower Service Life
About Technology Centrifugal Casting is a Production Technology used to make Composite Poles using Fiberglass, in the shape of a Truncated Cone with length up to 10 Metres. The Pole is formed by inserting the Re-inforced Fiberglass, in a specific Rotating Mould that has a Truncated Cone cavity. Due to centrifugal force, the Fiberglass adheres to the walls of the Mould and takes its shape. The Matrix (Resin) inside the Mould is impregnated with Fiberglass due to the rapid rotation of the Mould (Centrifugal Casting), and gets hardened by polymerising when it comes in contact with the heated Mould. The Poles thus produced by Centrifugal Casting, have consistent thickness due to controlled distribution of the reinforcement inside the Mould. This way, tapered Poles are obtained without increasing the thickness and thus weight, over its entire length. This technology makes it possible to manufacture Products with a high degree of dimensional precision and Physio-Mechanical repeatability. Please contact us to know more!
