A Wrapped Fiberglass Cylinder is a lightweight, high-strength cylindrical structure made by wrapping fiberglass-reinforced composite material around a core. These cylinders are widely used in pressure vessels, aerospace, automotive, and industrial applications due to their excellent strength-to-weight ratio, corrosion resistance, and durability.

• Material: Fiberglass-reinforced epoxy, polyester, or vinyl ester resin
• Manufacturing Process: Filament winding, pultrusion, or resin transfer molding (RTM)
• Diameter Range: Customizable (typically 50mm – 1000mm)
• Wall Thickness: 2mm – 20mm (depending on pressure and load requirements)
• Length: Customizable (standard sizes range from 1m to 6m)
• Tensile Strength: 500 – 1000 MPa
• Burst Pressure: 100 – 500 bar (depending on application)
• Density: 1.8 – 2.2 g/cm³
• Operating Temperature: -40°C to +120°C
• Corrosion Resistance: High (resistant to chemicals, UV, and moisture)
