Pultrusion

Manufacturing Process

Pultrusion products are fiberglass reinforced shapes formed in a continuous process which produces an end product with extraordinary strength properties. The base reinforcement material is pulled through a resin bath and then through a heated die, giving the part a final shape that meets client specifications. The pultrusion process allows a wide variety of shapes and lengths. Variations of proprieties such as strength and color can be obtained by changing the combination of resin mixture and reinforcement materials.
