Fabrication Capabilities
While our website tends to show our products in terms of “stock” shapes and items such as lengths of EXTREN I-beams or standard sizes of pultruded grating, the fact is we’re often asked to provide fiberglass reinforced plastic (FRP) parts with various degrees of fabrication or added services. These services can be as simple as cutting stock shapes or grating to size but other services are offered too. We can supply drilled parts or paint them with a polyurethane based top coat (which also adds more UV-resistance). We are sometimes asked to provide a solution partially assembled, for example an FRP stair kit would have the stringers pre-drilled and assembled with the stair treads but not with the accompanying hand rails. The most important information regarding fabrication is the sealing of the “fingers” when grating or stock shapes are cut down. The exposed fiberglass can be sealed by us with epoxy, but this is not a standard service when FRP is cut-to-size. So if you need sealed fingers – please let us know!
