FRP Rebar

FRP Rebar Manufacturer

FRP rebar, or Fiber Reinforced Polymer rebar, is a construction material that serves as an alternative to traditional steel rebar. It's made from high-strength fibers (like glass, carbon, or aramid) embedded in a polymer matrix, offering advantages such as corrosion resistance, high strength-to-weight ratio, and electrical non-conductivity. The fibers provide the tensile strength and stiffness, while the polymer matrix (often a plastic resin) binds the fibers together and provides corrosion resistance. AAC guarantees a tensile strength of 1000 MPa (on selected diameter) which allows to replace steel products with a composite smaller diameter without loss of performance.

FAQ

What is FRP Rebar?

FRP Rebar (Fiber Reinforced Polymer Rebar) is a high-strength, lightweight, non-corrosive reinforcement rod made from fiberglass and resin. It is used as an alternative to steel rebar in concrete structures where corrosion resistance is critical.

Where is FRP Rebar typically used?

FRP Rebar is used in:

Bridges and highways

Coastal and marine structures

Tunnels and subways

Water treatment plants

Foundations, retaining walls, and slabs

MRI rooms and electrical substations

Is FRP Rebar cost-effective?

While the initial cost may be higher than steel, lifetime savings are significant due to zero corrosion, reduced maintenance, and longer service life.

Can FRP Rebar be customized?

Yes, Aangi Advance Composite offers customizable designs, colors, and sizes to meet specific project requirements.
