Pultruded Fiberglass Siding
The same pultruded fiberglass material used in integrity and infinity products makes apex siding a low maintenance moisture and impact resistant alternative to fiber cement wood and vinyl.
Pultruded fiberglass siding. The information provided on this website is available to assist you in contacting apex siding and accessing. Pultruded fiberglass is a relatively new siding material that can withstand extreme temperatures. Pultruded fiberglass sheet shapes profiles are offered in three series shown below designed for different environments and applications. The glass used in fiberglass while basically the same core material as that used in flat glass comes in a different form rovings or also known as fibers.
Frp fiberglass structural profiles fiberglass i beam channel fiberglass rods poles fiberglass tube fiberglass pipe all frp profiles are sold minimum of 20 foot lengths. Strongirt pultruded z girt for continuous insulation cladding attachment is an all frp fiberglass composite using a custom fire retardant resin system and unique laminate design to offer superior pull out strength excellent thermal efficiency and the ability to work with any non proprietary insulation no routing or fabricating of rigid insulation is required. Pultrusion consists of pulling fiberglass strands through a resin and heated die. Pultruded fiberglass windows offer greater dimensional stability impact resistance strength and color fastness than the vinyl and wood windows that still dominate the residential construction market.
Apex will continue to stand behind its siding product and honor the terms of the product warranty for its duration. Pultruded fiberglass materials are made of glass fibers and resins. Pound for pound extren pultruded fiberglass structural shapes are stronger than steel in the lengthwise direction. Lap siding made with the material can withstand temperature extremes.
An interlocking design means tight seams and no visible nails. Fibergrate is now able to offer safe t span pultruded gratings assembled from nsf standard 61 certified frp components. This form of glass begins as a finely ground flour like material composed of silica and zirconia. A ratio of 70 glass to 30 resin providing twice the stiffness of molded grating allowing it to span greater distances.
But the dramatically improved thermal performance of fiberglass windows is promising gains in once out of reach commercial building construction.
