Glass Fibre Reinforced Polymer Dowel

Glass Fibre Reinforced Polymer Dowel

InfraBuild Construction Solutions (formerly LIBERTY OneSteel Reinforcing) supplies Glass Fibre Reinforced Polymer (GFRP) Dowel, an alternative to steel dowels in environments where there is potential for corrosion. Like standard steel dowels, GDRP Dowels are used as a load transfer device between joints in concrete slabs.

Typical uses

• Structures near the coast / marine environment
• Medical facilities requiring electromagnetic neutrality
• Footpaths
• Slab on ground
• Ports
• Tunnels

Features

• Corrosion resistant
• No premature deterioration of the concrete due to rusting of the dowels
• No locking of the joint in the slab
• Electromagnetic neutrality
• Lighter than steel (2 g/cm³, 4 x lighter)
