WACOSIT® profiles

Product catalog summary

Overview of WACOSIT® Profiles
WACOSIT® profiles are fibre-reinforced plastic profiles known for their excellent mechanical, thermal, and electrical properties. They are resistant to corrosion, moisture, and chemicals, making them ideal for diverse applications. These profiles have a smooth surface and precise dimensions, often eliminating the need for additional processing.

Specifications

Maximum component diameter: 1000 mm
Maximum component length: 2000 mm
Fibre angle range: 15° - 89°
Standard tolerances: ± 0.1 mm for internal diameter, ± 0.5 mm for length

Manufacturing Methods

Pultrusion: A continuous process using reinforcing fibres impregnated with synthetic resins.
Filament-winding: Employs high-precision winding mandrels for component creation.

Material Properties

Reinforcing fibres include glass, carbon, and aramide, each providing distinct mechanical properties.
Matrix materials include polyester, vinyl ester, and epoxy resins.
Profiles can be tailored for specific needs, such as enhanced weather resistance or flame retardancy.

Applications

Electrical engineering: Utilized in machinery construction, transformers, and switchgear.
Transportation and vehicle construction: Offers structural support and insulation.
Cable industry: Serves as guying elements in optical-fibre cables.

Processing and Safety

Profiles can be machined, drilled, and processed using hard-metal or diamond-tipped tools.
Wet processing is advised to minimize dust emission.

Certifications

All companies in the KREMPEL-GROUP are ISO 9001 certified, with some divisions also certified to QS-9000.

Conclusion
WACOSIT® profiles provide versatile solutions for various industrial applications due to their customizable properties and robust performance characteristics.
