Details Introduction
The sand-core FRP pipe is manufactured using a specialized process with resin (food-grade resin for potable water applications), fiberglass reinforcement, and quartz sand as raw materials.
Suitable Fields
1. Potable water transportation;
2. Sewage discharge;
3. Seawater transportation;
4. Power plant circulating water pipelines;
5. Transportation of corrosive media in chemical plants:
6. Oil and gas transportation;
7. Agricultural irrigation.
Advantages of FRP Sand-Core Pipes
1. Excellent Corrosion Resistance & Water Safety
FRP pipes resist acids, alkalis, salts, seawater, untreated sewage, corrosive soils/groundwater, and various chemical fluids without affecting water quality.
2. Anti-Fouling & Microorganism Resistance
The smooth, non-reactive surface of unsaturated polyester resin prevents fouling by marine organisms (e.g., barnacles) and microbial growth.
3. Thermal Stability (-50°C to 110°C)
-
Maintains strength and toughness at -30°C
-
Long-term service range: -50°C to 80°C
-
Special resin formulations allow operation above 110°C
4. Lightweight & High Strength for Easy Installation
-
Density: 1.65–2.0 g/cm³ (1/4 the weight of steel)
-
Tensile strength:
-
Hoop: 180–300 MPa
-
Axial: 60–150 MPa
-
-
Bell-and-spigot joints enable rapid installation
5. Low Friction Loss & High Flow Efficiency
-
Ultra-smooth interior (Hazen-Williams coefficient n=0.0084) vs:
-
Concrete pipe (n=0.014)
-
Cast iron (n=0.013)
-
-
Reduces head loss by 20–40% compared to traditional materials
6. Electrical & Thermal Insulation
-
Volume resistivity: 10¹²–10¹⁵ Ω·cm
-
Thermal conductivity: 0.23 W/(m·K) (0.5% of steel)
7. Abrasion Resistance & Low Maintenance
-
No need for:
-
Cathodic protection (saves >70% maintenance costs)
-
Anti-corrosion coatings
-
Insulation upkeep
-
8. Customizable Design Flexibility
Tailored pressure ratings (up to 6.4 MPa) and stiffness classes (SN2500–SN10000) for project-specific requirements.
9. 50+ Year Service Life (Verified)
Accelerated aging tests confirm >50-year lifespan in buried conditions.
10. Superior Life-Cycle Economics
-
Lower total cost for large diameters (economies of scale)
-
Zero routine maintenance for underground installations
