Product Description

Product Description & Key Specifications

GFRP composite bolts are non-metallic fasteners used where electrical insulation, corrosion resistance and low weight are required. They are commonly paired with GFRP composite hex nuts and flat washers to create complete non-conductive fastening systems.

Glass fiber reinforced polymer provides better stiffness than unfilled plastic while remaining non-conductive and corrosion-resistant. GFRP bolts are used in renewable energy equipment, power generation support hardware, cable tray systems, electrical isolation structures and corrosive outdoor assemblies. They are not direct replacements for steel bolts unless the joint is designed for composite fasteners.

Project sizes are produced by OEM drawings with ASTM D7957 reference where applicable. UV-stabilized material is selected for outdoor exposure. RFQs should confirm diameter, length, thread form, head style, tensile/load requirement, UV exposure, flame-retardant or dielectric requirement and matching nut/washer needs.

Selection

Selection Advantages by Application

Renewable Energy Electrical Structures

GFRP bolts support non-conductive fastening in PV support accessories, cable trays and outdoor electrical systems where UV-stabilized corrosion-resistant hardware is required.

Renewable energy fasteners

Power Generation Isolation Hardware

Composite bolts are used in insulating brackets, busbar supports and power equipment accessories where metal bolts would create unwanted electrical paths.

Power generation fasteners

Chemical and Corrosion-Prone Equipment

GFRP bolts can be selected for corrosive outdoor equipment when the composite material is compatible with the chemical exposure and mechanical load.

FAQ

Common Questions Before RFQ

What are GFRP composite bolts used for?

They are used in non-conductive, corrosion-resistant and lightweight assemblies where metal bolts are not suitable.

Can GFRP bolts replace steel bolts?

Only when the joint is designed for composite fasteners. They are not direct substitutes for high-strength steel bolts in structural joints.

Are GFRP bolts suitable outdoors?

Yes, when UV-stabilized material is specified and the exposure, temperature and load are suitable for the composite grade.

Can matching nuts and washers be supplied?

Yes. GFRP bolts can be supplied with matching GFRP composite hex nuts and flat washers.

What RFQ details are needed?

Send drawing, diameter, length, thread, head style, material, UV requirement, mechanical load and certificate requirements.

Need GFRP composite bolts for non-conductive assemblies?

Send your drawing, size, thread, head style, UV requirement, load condition and matching nut/washer needs. We can quote GFRP composite fastener sets for renewable, power and corrosion-resistant equipment.
