WACOSIT® Pultruded plastic profiles
WACOSIT® profiles are realised by the "Pultrusion method". Reinforcing fibres are impregnated with synthetic resins and cured continuously in a heated mould.
Besides glass fibres, WACOSIT® profiles can be strengthened by carbon fibres or by aramide fibres. Variants of these are also available to best meet the differing requirements.
Thus for example, there are also the R, S and T types of glass fibres available. These are characterised by better mechanical properties over the more commonly used E type of glass fibre. Alongside rovings, there are also other fabric structures such as tapes and warp-knit complexes which are also used in engineering WACOSIT® profiles.
Tools are available for selection from more than 5000 pultruded WACOSIT® profiles, the exact dimensions for which can be taken from the applicable WACOSIT® profile list. We will of course customise a profile to your specifications.
