Grating Mini Catalog (PDF)
CORVEX®(Fibergrate only):
An economical polyester grating, Corvex outperforms a number of competitive
fiberglass and metal products and meets the requirements for corrosion resistance
found in light industrial and water/wastewater application. Color: yellow, dark
gray or dark green. Flame Spread: ASTM rating of 25 or less.
CP-84(Chemgrate only):
A premium grade polyester resin, CP-84 offers excellent corrosion resistance
in highly acidic conditions. This non-fire retardant resin is a chemical grade
thermoset that has USDA acceptance for use in food processing plants. Color:
green. Flame Spread: non-fire retardant.
ELS(Fibergrate only):
The added benefit of greater worker visibility and lower toxicity in emergencies,
make ELS products ideal for tunnel, offshore, ship and other confined area application.
Color: light gray. Flame Spread: ASTM rating of 15, a smoke density index of
70 and Fuel Contribution of 0.
FGI(Fibergrate only):
This isophthalic polyester resin system meets the unique requirements of
the food and beverage industry. Color: light gray or dark green. Flame Spread:
ASTM rating of 20 or less.
FS-25(Chemgrate only):
FS-25 is a polyester resin system designed for applications where there
is moderate exposure to corrosive elements. This resin system is USDA accepted.
Color: light gray. Flame Spread: ASTM rating of 25 or less.
IFR(Fibergrate only):
This isophthalic polyester resin formulation is designed for industrial
and chemical processing applications where corrosion resistance is important.
Color: green or dark gray. Flame Spread: ASTM rating of 20 or less. IFR is also
available in a UL Classified resin formulation.
Super ViCorr®(Fibergrate only):
A superior grade vinyl ester resin system designed for extreme temperatures
(180º to 400º F) and extremely corrosive environments such as solvents
and acidic oxidizers, including aqueous chlorine and chlorine dioxide solutions
forming sodium hypochlorite. This custom resin system is used mainly as packing
hold-downs (bed limiters) and as packing supports in environmental or process
scrubber and stripping applications. Color: natural - tan to beige. Flame Spread:
non-fire retardant,
unless specified.
Vi-Corr®(Fibergrate only):
A superior vinyl ester resin available only from Fibergrate, Vi-Corr was developed
for reliable performance in the toughest environments.It offers outstanding resistance
to a wide range of highly corrosive situations, ranging from caustic to acidic.
In fact, no other resin system can match Vi-Corr’s performance in highly
acidic environments. Color: orange or dark gray. Flame Spread: ASTM rating of
15 or less. Vi-Corr is also available in a UL Classified resin formulation.
VE-25(Chemgrate only):
A premium vinyl ester resin system formulated
to resist the highly corrosive properties of acids and caustics
found in the harshest chemical environment.
It is an economical alternative to the more expensive exotic materials
often specified for highly corrosive conditions. Color: orange
or dark gray. Flame spread: ASTM rating of 15 or less. This superior
resin system will maintain its structural integrity at elevated
temperatures of up to 180ºF.
XFR(Fibergrate only):
This highly corrosion resistant vinyl ester
resin is recommended for use where the fire potential is high.
Color: dark gray. Flame Spread: ASTM rating of 10 or less, a level
exceeded by no other resin system. |
