BENEFITS OF FRP FABRICATED PIPE AND TANKS
The chief reason for the popularity of FRP fabricated pipe and tanks is their excellent resistance to corrosion. FRP is often chosen due to its:
- Corrosion resistance to a wide range of acids, bases,
- chlorides, solvents, and oxidizers
- Heat resistance
- Electrical and thermal insulation
- High strength-to-weight ratio
- Low maintenance
- Requires no cathodic protection, rust-free
- Ease of repair
