DIAMOND PLATE
DIAMOND PLATE
OBJECT
The Compression Molded Fiberglass System (Kordek®) the patented matched – Die process exerts a heated force uniformly throughout the entire Glass and resin bonding operation.
The Hydraulic pressure of compression-molding forces glass deep into resin and forces out air creating an extra dense and less porous plate.
The resulting high density compression molded plates provide higher flexural and impact strength and better chemical &U.V resistance
This unique product features a slip-resistant molded-in diamond pattern to provide the additional advantage of a non-skid surface, & improve footing. Plain sheet with anti-slip surface silica sand on top also available on request.
Kordek®) also work as an excellent cover for odor, vapor or fume control and it’s great for trench covers.
MATERIALS
The main Raw Materials to be used for manufacturing of this type of plate are Resin and chop strand mat glass, Woven roving glass.
- Raisins Type
- Premium Grade Polyester Resin system with fire retardancy as per ASTM E-84.
- Vinyl ester Resin system Class 1 with fire retardancy as per ASTM E-84.
- Glass Roving
