FRP End Cap

LEADFRP industrial FRP End Cap are commercial railing systems for stair rails, platform/walkway handrails and guardrails. LEADFRP systems are fabricated from pultruded fiberglass components produced by Strongwell and molded thermoplastic connectors. The railing systems are particularly well-suited to corrosive environments like those found in industrial, chemical and wastewater treatment plants as well as commercial structures with urban and salt air corrosion.

LEADFRP System Options

• UV Coating
  LEADFRP recommends that an industrial-grade polyurethane coating be applied to the finished handrail and/or ladder cage for additional protection against fading in outdoor applications. Standard LEADFRP handrail systems are unpainted; the polyurethane UV coating must be requested when ordered.

• Resin Systems
  A polyester resin system is standard for the LEADFRP handrail systems but other resin systems are available upon request.

• Colors
  LEADFRP handrail and ladder systems are produced in a standard safety yellow color. Other colors are available upon request.

• Shapes
  LEADFRP handrail and ladder systems are produced with your choice of standard round and square rails.

• Square Handrail
  The square fiberglass handrail system is ideal for any high traffic area where handrail is needed. The handrail system meets OSHA strength requirements with a 2:1 factor of safety with 6-foot maximum post spacing. Internally bonded fiberglass connectors result in no visible rivets or metal parts. The handrail system includes a UV inhibitor for additional resistance to ultraviolet degradation and corrosion.  The square handrail system is the most commonly used system because it is the most economical industrial handrail and easily fabricated in the field.

• Round Handrail
  The round fiberglass handrail system is ideal for any high traffic area where handrail is needed. The round rails are easy to grip and 90º molded corners eliminate sharp edges. The handrail system meets OSHA strength requirements with a 2:1 factor of safety with 5-foot maximum post spacing. Internally bonded fiberglass connectors result in no visible rivets or metal parts. The handrail system includes a UV inhibitor for additional resistance to ultraviolet degradation and corrosion. The round handrail system is commonly used in food and agricultural environments due to very little dust and debris accumulation.

• Channel-Top Handrail
  LEADFRP channel top industrial fiberglass handrail is an economical commercial railing system designed for long runs on platforms and walkways. The railing system is designed for fabrication efficiency and is not particularly well-suited for stair rails with twists and turns. LEADFRP channel top can be used in combination with round and square LEADFRP as needed.

Handrail and Fencing System

• Easy installation and field fabrication
• Economical installation of long straight runs
• Fewer components, reducing freight cost
• No epoxy required
• All riveted connections

Traditional building materials have their place. But for harsh, corrosive environments, FRP is a smart choice. Here’s how FRP compares to several traditional options

At LEADFRP, we believe that fiber reinforced plastic (FRP) products are the choice of the future. Compared with traditional materials such as steel and aluminum, it has excellent performance and service life.

LEADFRP provides a series of high-strength fiber reinforced plastic products (FRP), which are designed and manufactured to provide long-lasting performance in highly corrosive environments, while having the advantages of light weight and high dielectric strength compared with traditional structural materials.

Since 2001, we have provided our customers with innovative, high-quality composite designs and materials through two strategic offices/factories located in the United States and China. It is here that we provide turnkey solutions to take your product from concept to design, to mold calculation, manufacturing, and finally to installation. [More about manufacturing]

We own 5 acres (20000 square metre) standard plants, 80 sets of advanced various manufacturing and machining equipments, 120 sets of assembly pultrusion production line, including one 1000 kN tensile strength machine and one 200 kN bending and torsion machine. We also can proceed basic property test of different kinds of composite insulation materials according to GB, ASTM, etc standards. Our products passed TUV Rheinland type test and UL type test.

LEADFRP strictly carry out standardized, scientific and normalized management mode. We fully implement ISO9001 quality management system, ERP managing system and 6S management mode through the whole service cycle of contract signing, production, process inspection, finished product ex-factory, after-sales service, which outstandingly reflect ‘Quality is the Life of Enterprise’. We have ISO9001, ISO14001 and ISO45001 identification.
