Fiber Reinforced Plastic Rod (FRP/KFRP) For Optic Cable

FRP strength member is to use epoxy resin as foundation combined with the strength of glass fiber through pultrusion technology to produce a new type of high performance non-metallic composite material which is used to make various optical fiber cables.

Features:
Light weight high strength, low density and high ratio of strength/weight.
Insensitive to lightning strike, it is suitable for the area with frequent lightning and rain.
Low expansion, it has low expansion coefficient in a wide range of temperature settings.
Free from interference, it can resist induction interference; can be installed close to the power line and electronic devices.
Corrosion free, which eliminates harmful gas born from metallic corrosion which can negatively, affects cable’s transmission quality.

Product Usage:

• FRP is used as strength member as it provides high tensile strength & bending properties. • The combination of Aramid yarn and a specific resin gives high tensile strength , low bending radius and light weight making it suitable for FTTH / Drop/Ariel cables.

Product Details :

• ARP provides strength to the cable with low bending radius . • ARP prevents cable buckling with high modulus. • ARP is very light weight. • Various length options provide flexibility & throughput on production floor.
