The use of composite material in industries is widely increasing, where light weight, corrosion resistance and high specific modulus along with strength is critically required. Composite is a two component material, which is made by two or more materials to give a unique combination of properties.

The above constituents retain their identities, as they do not dissolve or merge completely into one another although they are in concert.

Two or more material includes
  • Reinforcements (Glass, Carbon, Aramid, Ceramics)
  • Binding Materials (Thermosetting Resins)
  • Fillers & additives ( Chalk, Kaolin, Flame retardants, U.Vinhibitors)

APPLICATIONS

  • STORM & DRAINAGE SYSTEMS.
  • SANITARY SEWERS
  • POWER PLANTS
  • IRRIGATION LINES
  • CHEMCIAL AND PETROCHEMICAL INDUSTRIES
  • WATER DESALINATION PLANTS
  • CHILLED WATER
  • SERVICE WATER
  • FIRE FIGHTING LINES

Fittings used in piping are fabricated with the same high quality pipe material. The same specification of pipes is used to fabricate spools as per site requirements.

Molded flange adopters.

OSC fabricates high quality molded fixed flange adopters, a durable and sustainable solution to lap joints. Flange adopters are all customized and make to order as per specific requirements, design parameters and drilling standard as to meet the customer needs and requirements. A five years warranty is offered on all of our molded flange adopters against any defect or leakage.

WHY TO CHOOSE FIBER REINFORCED PLASTIC

  • Light weight material with preferably high strength and stiffness.
  • Combination of requirements, which alone cannot be fulfilled by only one material.
  • Excellent corrosion resistance even in aggressive environments.
  • One sixth the weight of steel reduces installation cost.
  • Virtually no maintenance required as the material itself immune to bacterial, algae attack, no slime.
  • Due to high structural integrity and reinforcement with fibers can maintain critical tolerances for the most demanding applications.
  • Excellent strength to weight ratio, stronger than steel on an equal weight basis.
  • Strength per unit weight even surpasses stainless steel.
  • Can obtain extremely high fire retardant capability by use of special phenolic resins or by adding antimony trioxide.
  • Excellent thermal conductivity, which reduces the need for insulation.
  • Can be made U.V resistant by adding ultraviolet inhibitors like tinuvin.
  • Life span of FRP composite product 30-50 years, made to be last for decades.

RANGE OF SERVICES OFFERED BY OSC

GRP/FRP/RTR/RTRP/GRE Pipes

OSC supplies best Glass reinforced plastic or ‘’GRP’’ or reinforced thermosetting plastic ‘’RTR’’ pipes, which produce excellent fatigue resistance, chemical asistance, impact resistance and excellent environmental properties including shrinkage, leading to lesser stresses in finished pipe and producing excellent mechanical properties.

The selection of pipe components (binding material and the reinforcements) is entirely based on the type of fluid handled, type of chemical, percentage of its concentration and service temperature.

Different types of resins are used as per the application and can lead to the following categories.

  • GRP When Iso-pthalic resin. Polyester resin and Ortho-pthalic polyester resin is used resin as main binding material for general applications like service water and utility water.
  • FRP / RTR / RTRP / GRV When vinyl ester resin is used as the binding material for specific chemical resistance and slightly elevated temperatures up to 85°C
  • GRE When epoxy resin is used as binding material for specific chemical

CODES & APPLICABLE DESIGN STANDARDS

  • AWWA C-950
  • AWWA M-45
  • SASO -1577
  • ASTM D3262
  • ASTM D3517
  • ASTM D3754
  • BS EN 1796

Mitered Elbows & bends.

OSC fabricates high quality mitered elbow, obtained from the pipe cut length laminating the cut length to obtain the desired bend. Mitered elbows can be produced in long radius and short radius as per specific requirements.
