Scope of application

Introduction for solid fiberglass rods, fiberglass sticks for tools, fiberglass bars round

Fiberglass Rod is a composite material with unique characteristics making it useful in a wide variety of applications. Most

rods are composed of polyester resin and fiberglass. These composites can be formed into practically any shape by using

the pultrusion process.It is manufactured in several standard, stocked grades. By varying the resin system and glass content,

properties may be enhanced to meet a wide range of demanding requirements. These composite matrices determine the

characteristics of each grade.Liberty Pultrusions stocks many sizes of fiberglass rod products including round, trapezoid,

dogbone and rectangular shapes. solid fiberglass rods, fiberglass sticks for tools, fiberglass bars round
