YILONG, a trusted name in composite material solutions, has announced advancements in its Fiberglass Rod manufacturing process, designed to meet the needs of industries operating in challenging and corrosive environments. Fiberglass Rods are proving to be an ideal replacement for traditional metal products, offering superior corrosion resistance, electrical insulation, and structural performance.
YILONG Fiberglass Rods are used across multiple industries, including:
Marine & Offshore: shipbuilding, offshore platforms, and harbor structures
Industrial & Chemical: pollution control, chemical plants, and corrosion-prone areas
Energy & Utilities: power plants, electrical insulation, and renewable energy equipment
Public Infrastructure: water and wastewater treatment facilities, e-government infrastructure, and public utilities
Specialized Markets: oil and gas, entertainment structures, and food processing facilities
These applications benefit from Fiberglass Rods’ ability to maintain mechanical strength and performance where metals would degrade.
Fiberglass Rods, also referred to as FRP (Fiber Reinforced Plastic) rods, are produced using thermosetting resin combined with high-strength glass fiber through specialized techniques. Depending on the manufacturing method, YILONG offers several process options:
1. Winding Process
Advantages: High transverse strength; ideal for certain pressurized applications such as pipelines.
Limitations: Lower longitudinal strength, fixed production length, and generally unsuitable for continuous production.
Use Cases: Structural pipes and custom engineering projects where transverse load is a priority.
2. Cloth-Wrapped Tubes
Advantages: Balanced strength in both vertical and horizontal directions; lightweight; capable of thin-wall production.
Limitations: Lower efficiency due to more manual steps; larger workforce requirements; less consistent quality stability.
Use Cases: Applications requiring structural uniformity and reduced weight.
3. Pultrusion Process
Advantages: High longitudinal strength; capability to add reinforcement layers for improved transverse strength; smooth surface finish; continuous production possible.
Limitations: Higher equipment and process precision requirements; thin-wall tube production is challenging; more suited to small- and medium-sized profiles.
Use Cases: High-performance applications with continuous production needs and strict dimensional tolerances.
YILONG manufactures Fiberglass Rods in multiple profiles:
Standard: Round tubes
Custom: Square tubes, rectangular tubes, multi-hole (porous) tubes, and special-shaped profiles
Custom cross-sections can be tailored to client specifications for structural, electrical, or aesthetic requirements.
Material choice plays a critical role in the final product’s performance:
Polyester Resin: General-purpose, cost-effective
Vinyl Ester Resin: Enhanced corrosion resistance
Epoxy Resin: High mechanical strength and dimensional stability
Specialty Resins: Phenolic, polyurethane, and other formulations for unique application environments
By selecting the appropriate resin and fiber composition, YILONG ensures each product meets the mechanical, chemical, and thermal demands of its intended use.
“At YILONG, we are committed to delivering Fiberglass Rod solutions that meet the highest standards for performance and reliability,” said the company’s production director. “Our advanced manufacturing processes allow us to serve industries where durability, precision, and safety are non-negotiable.”
With continuous research and investment in FRP manufacturing technology, YILONG aims to remain at the forefront of composite material innovation, offering clients fully customized solutions with efficient delivery and long-term durability.
When performance, durability, and cost efficiency are essential, Phenolic Sheets stand out as a dependable choice. These industrial laminates are engineered to deliver exceptional strength, electrical insulation, and resistance to heat, moisture, and a wide range of chemicals. Built for demanding conditions, Phenolic Sheets perform reliably even in high-stress environments.
In modern industrial manufacturing and electrical insulation sectors, phenolic laminates remain a cornerstone material thanks to their robust mechanical performance, dependable dielectric properties, and notable resistance to chemical corrosion. Among the broad spectrum of phenolic laminate products, Phenolic Paper Sheets and Phenolic Cotton Cloth Sheets represent two of the most widely utilized and technically significant variants. Each offers distinct performance advantages, making them particularly suited for different engineering and operational contexts.
Engineering Plastics are a category of high-performance polymers designed to meet demanding requirements that go beyond the capabilities of most commodity plastics. Known for their exceptional mechanical properties, these materials excel in heavy-duty applications where factors such as shock absorption, chemical resistance, and dimensional stability are critical.
Bearing grade PEEK is specially formulated with solid lubricants such as PTFE, graphite, and sometimes carbon fiber. These additives provide exceptional tribological properties, resulting in very low friction, reduced wear, and extended component life.
While PEEK sheet and PEEK plate are both made from the high-performance thermoplastic Polyetheretherketone (PEEK), there are clear differences in thickness and application focus:
Polyether Ether Ketone (PEEK) is recognized in engineering circles as one of the most capable thermoplastic polymers available. It offers a rare balance of mechanical strength, chemical resistance, and thermal stability, making it an excellent choice for situations where both performance and durability are paramount. From aerospace components to medical implants, PEEK’s reliability in extreme environments ensures its continued relevance as industries demand more from their materials.
Epoxy fiberglass tubes are widely valued in various industries due to their exceptional strength, durability, and insulating characteristics. However, precise handling of these materials demands specialized tools and techniques to ensure both accuracy and safety. This comprehensive guide delves into the key methods for cutting and machining Epoxy fiberglass tubes, offering practical insights for both professionals and DIY enthusiasts.
Electrical Insulation Materials are fundamental components in the manufacturing and operation of electrical and electronic equipment. According to national classification standards, insulation materials are systematically divided into seven principal series. YILONG, a leader in advanced insulation solutions, presents this comprehensive overview of each series to support industry professionals in selecting the optimal materials for their applications.
