EPOXY Polished Fiber Reinforced Plastic Sheets, Brand Name : DKFI

An "FRP Coil Support" refers to a component made from Fiber Reinforced Polymer (FRP), typically fiberglass, designed to physically support and hold a coiled metal structure, most commonly used in industrial applications like induction furnaces to support the heavy copper coils within the furnace; it provides both structural support and electrical insulation due to the insulating properties of FRP material.

Key points about FRP Coil Supports:

• Material: Primarily made from glass fiber cloth bonded with a resin like polyester or epoxy, creating a strong and lightweight composite material.
• Function: Used to elevate and stabilize the copper coils within an induction furnace, preventing them from sagging or contacting other components.
• Benefits:
  • High strength-to-weight ratio: FRP offers excellent structural support while remaining lightweight.
  • Electrical Insulation: The composite material provides good electrical insulation, preventing short circuits.
  • Heat Resistance: Depending on the resin used, FRP can withstand high temperatures encountered in furnaces.
  • Corrosion Resistance: Resistant to corrosion, unlike traditional metal supports.
• Design Variations:
  • G10 Grade: A high-performance FRP often used for coil supports due to its superior mechanical strength and electrical insulation properties.
  • Custom Shapes: Can be molded into specific shapes and sizes to fit different coil configurations.
