Composite Rods
OUR BRAND – JITEC
Non-metallic composite load-bearing rods, braided, made of E-glass fiber and a thermosetting resin.
Available in a wide range of diameters from 1 mm to 11 mm.
The process involves impregnating continuous fibers by dipping them into a thermosetting resin.
The impregnated strands are then assembled, shaped, and calibrated.
Final curing is carried out by thermal polymerization before winding onto wooden reels.
Fields of application: telecommunications – reinforcement of optical fiber cables for traction, bending, and torsion.
Manufacturing technology
Pultrusion & Impregnation
Continuous fibers are dipped in a thermosetting resin, then assembled, calibrated, and shaped before being cured through thermal polymerization.
The FRP pultrusion process is specifically used for manufacturing composite rods for cable reinforcement.
Mechanical & Physical Properties
Lightweight, with a typical density around 1.9.
High tensile strength, lower elongation compared to steel.
Dimensional rigidity suitable for integration into optical cables.
Non-magnetic, corrosion-resistant, electrically insulating — ideal for environments sensitive to interference.
Prototypes
We can produce calibrated samples and conduct precise tests according to some of your specifications.
