Infinity Rebars fiberglass reinforced polymer (GFRP) products are known for their ability to protect against corrosion under the most severe and chemical exposure conditions. Unlike steel and wood, GFRP products will not corrode or corrode, providing reliable durability over time.
GFRP rebars do not corrode, which is a common issue with steel rebars. This corrosion resistance ensures the structural integrity of the reinforced concrete over the long term.
GFRP rebars are significantly lighter than steel rebars. This makes them easier to handle, transport, and install on construction sites. It also reduces the overall weight of the concrete structure.
Despite being lightweight, GFRP rebars offer high tensile strength. They have a high strength-to-weight ratio, making them suitable for applications where weight is a concern but structural strength is crucial.
GFRP rebars are non-conductive, meaning they do not conduct electricity. This property is especially valuable in structures where electrical conductivity could pose a safety risk.
GFRP rebars exhibit minimal thermal expansion and contraction. This stability ensures that the dimensions of the structure remain consistent, reducing the risk of cracks and structural issues.
GFRP rebars can be easily cut and fabricated on-site, allowing for customization to specific project requirements without the need for specialized tools or equipment.
GFRP rebars are highly durable and have a long lifespan. They are resistant to various environmental conditions, including chemicals and aggressive substances often found in industrial or marine environments.
Due to their lightweight nature, GFRP rebars are easier to install, especially in applications where manual labor is involved. This ease of installation can lead to cost savings in terms of labor and time.
Structures reinforced with GFRP rebars require minimal maintenance over their lifetime, reducing long-term maintenance costs for the owner.
GFRP rebars can be manufactured in various shapes and sizes to suit specific project requirements. This flexibility in design allows engineers to optimize the reinforcement layout for enhanced structural performance.
GFRP rebars are often considered environmentally friendly because they are corrosion-resistant and do not require coatings or treatments that can be harmful to the environment.
