Tree Support: Used to support newly planted trees, helping trees remain stable in the early growth stage and prevent wind from blowing over. The weather resistance of fiberglass rods makes them suitable for a variety of environmental conditions.
3. Irrigation System
Irrigation Pipe Support: Fiberglass rods are used to support and fix irrigation pipes to ensure the stable operation of irrigation systems. Its corrosion resistance makes it suitable for various water quality environments, including water containing chemical fertilizers.
Sprinkler Equipment Support: Used to support sprinkler equipment, provide stable support, ensure the normal operation of sprinkler equipment, and improve irrigation efficiency.
4. Animal Husbandry
Fences and Fences: Fiberglass rods are used to make fences and fences for livestock farms, providing corrosion-resistant and high-strength solutions, suitable for various climate conditions, and not easily damaged by animals.
Animal sheds: used to support the structure of animal sheds, such as roofs and walls, providing lightweight and durable support to ensure the safety and stability of livestock houses.
5. Aquaculture
Cages and buoys: Fiberglass rods are used to manufacture cages and buoys for aquaculture, providing corrosion resistance and high strength, suitable for seawater and freshwater environments, ensuring the long-term use of aquaculture equipment.
Aquaculture equipment brackets: used to support aquaculture equipment, such as feed dispensers and water quality monitoring equipment, to ensure the stable operation of equipment and improve aquaculture efficiency.
6. Gardening
Flower brackets: Fiberglass stakes are used to support flowers and ornamental plants, helping plants maintain beautiful shapes, suitable for home gardening and commercial gardening.
Gardening tools: used to manufacture handles and support parts of gardening tools, providing lightweight and high strength performance, easy to operate and use.
7. Protective facilities
Windbreak net brackets: used to support windbreak nets to protect crops from strong winds, provide stable support, and ensure the healthy growth of crops.
Bird-proof net bracket: used to support bird-proof nets to prevent birds from invading crops and ensure the safety of crops, especially suitable for orchards and vegetable planting areas.
8. Other applications
Sign poles and signs: Fiberglass rods are used to manufacture agricultural sign poles and signs, providing weather resistance and high strength performance, suitable for various environmental conditions.
Agricultural machinery parts: used to manufacture structural components of agricultural machinery, such as brackets and handles, providing lightweight and durable solutions to improve the service life and performance of agricultural machinery.
The specific application of fiberglass rods in the agricultural field not only improves the efficiency and quality of agricultural production, but also provides durable, environmentally friendly and economical solutions. Whether in greenhouses, sheds, irrigation systems or animal husbandry and aquaculture, fiberglass rods play an important role.
The types of fiberglass rods
Chongqing Dujiang has various types of fiberglass rods. We can customize them according to customer needs. There are both unsaturated resin and epoxy resin fiberglass rods. The following are the types of fiberglass rods we produce.
1. Classification by manufacturing process
Pultruded fiberglass rod: It is made by mixing glass fiber and resin and then pultruding it, which is suitable for mass production with consistent quality and size.
Filmed fiberglass rod: It is made by winding glass fiber filaments on a mold and then impregnating resin and curing it, with high strength and high pressure resistance.
Compression molded fiberglass rod: It is pressed by a mold and is suitable for the production of rods with complex shapes.
2. Classification by material composition
Pure fiberglass rod: It is made of pure glass fiber and resin, with high strength and corrosion resistance.
Composite fiberglass rod: Other reinforcing materials such as carbon fiber or aramid fiber are added to glass fiber and resin to improve specific properties such as strength, rigidity or heat resistance.
3. Classification by shape and size
Round fiberglass rod: The most common shape, suitable for a variety of application scenarios.
Square fiberglass rod: It is used for specific structural needs and provides better stability.
Special-shaped fiberglass rod: The shape is customized according to special needs to meet specific application requirements.
Solid fiberglass rod: It has high strength and rigidity and is suitable for applications requiring high loads.
