What use are even the best
pipes and fittings if they cannot be
connected together or are very difficult to connect together?
Essentially, almost all connection types are possible in the processing of
Fiberpipe and Fibercast pipes. The most common are ADHESION,
LAMINATING, BELL & SPIGOT and assembly of flange connections!
The bonding technology is
the most common way of
manufacturing a pipeline from pipes and fittings around the world.
For this purpose, the pipes are cut to length, the bonding surfaces roughened,
the adhesive applied, the end of the pipe pushed into the bushing, fixed and
then tempered .
This quick and cost-efficient method of assembly has proven itself over the
last 20 years across the world and is undoubted today.
The laminate connection is
the classic way of joining GRP parts together.
Anyone who has already repaired their car, boat, surfboard or something similar
with GRP should be confident with this procedure. Here the surface is also roughened
and then resin impregnated glass mats and fibre cloth are applied according to
the
specifications. After the desired wall thickness has been achieved, the
laminate is allowed to dry, cure and the connection can be immediately charged.
The plug-in connection is
particularly well-suited to longer distances.
In the case of this type of connection, there is a groove for the locking rod
in the bushing area of the pipes and one or two O rings.
The procedure is designed as follows: the pipes are plugged together
and then the heated locking rod is driven through the corresponding groove.
The fittings are also joined to the pipe with adhesive in this type of
connection.
All standard flange
connections can also be presented with Fibercast
and Fiberpipe pipe systems.
Whether a fixed flange, DIN, ISO, GRP collar or loose flange, galvanized steel,
polypropylene
coated or special flange…..anything is possible.
Fiberpipe or Fibercast pipe
systems stand out for a large degree of variation
with connection type.
Whether Straub, Mewa, Gruvlock or anything else, feel free to put us to the
test.
