Key Features of GRP Handrails

  • Résistance à la corrosion: GRP is highly resistant to chemicals, saltwater, and environmental factors, making it ideal for marine, offshore, and industrial environments.

  • Poids léger: Being significantly lighter than steel, GRP handrails are easier to handle, transport, and install.

  • Non conductrice: GRP provides excellent electrical insulation, ensuring safety in electrical environments.

  • Faible entretien: Unlike metal, GRP does not require painting or regular coating applications.

  • Rapport résistance/poids élevé: Offers exceptional structural strength while remaining lightweight.

  • UV Resistant: Designed to withstand UV exposure without degrading.

  • Personnalisable: Available in a variety of colors and finishes for aesthetic appeal.


📏 Conventional Specifications and Dimensions

While GRP handrails can be customized to meet specific project needs, there are standard specifications commonly used in industrial applications:

1. Tube Dimensions

  • Diameter: 50 mm to 63 mm (2 inches to 2.5 inches)

  • Wall Thickness: 4 mm to 6 mm

  • Longueur: Typically available in 3, 6, or 12-meter sections

2. Post Dimensions

  • Square or Round Posts: 50 mm x 50 mm or 60 mm x 60 mm

  • Wall Thickness: 5 mm to 7 mm

  • Spacing: Generally spaced at 1 to 1.5 meters apart

3. Kick Plates and Toeboards

  • Hauteur: 100 mm to 150 mm

  • Épaisseur: 4 mm to 5 mm

4. Fixing and Connections

  • Typically bolted to the floor using stainless steel or galvanized fasteners.

  • Modular fittings ensure easy installation and customization.

FAQ

Q :

How Strong are GRP Handrails Compared to Steel?

UN :

GRP Handrails offer excellent strength-to-weight ratio, often comparable to steel. While steel may have higher load-bearing capacity, GRP provides sufficient strength for most industrial and commercial applications, particularly in corrosive environments.

Q :

Are GRP Handrails Suitable for Marine and Offshore Applications?

UN :

Yes, GRP Handrails are ideal for marine environments. They are resistant to saltwater corrosion and UV exposure, making them a preferred choice for docks, ships, and offshore platforms.

Q :

How Are GRP Handrails Installed?

UN :

GRP Handrails are designed for easy installation using a modular system. Components are typically bolted together without the need for welding. Standard tools are sufficient, reducing installation time and labor costs.

Q :

Can GRP Handrails Be Customized?

UN :

Absolutely! GRP Handrails can be customized in terms of: Dimensions (tube size, post height, spacing) Colors (often yellow for high visibility) Finishes (smooth, textured, or anti-slip) Configurations (single or multi-rail systems)

Q :

Do GRP Handrails Require Maintenance?

UN :

No, GRP Handrails require minimal maintenance. Unlike metal, they do not rust or corrode. Periodic cleaning with water and mild detergent is generally sufficient.

Q :

Are GRP Handrails Electrically Conductive?

UN :

No, GRP Handrails are non-conductive, making them ideal for environments with electrical hazards like power plants and substations.

Q :

Are GRP Handrails Fire Resistant?

UN :

GRP Handrails can be manufactured with fire-retardant resins to meet fire safety standards. Always check with the manufacturer for the appropriate fire rating for your application.

Q :

What is the Typical Lifespan of a GRP Handrail?

UN :

GRP Handrails typically last over 20 years, even in harsh environments. Their resistance to corrosion, UV damage, and weathering contributes to their long service life.
