T-UD series GPE700 UD Tape is a continuous glass fiber reinforced thermoplastic material. The continuous fiber is impregnated in thermoplastic HDPE resin, and the resulting thermoplastic mono-directional tape is a lightweight material with excellent mechanical properties.
GPE700 UD Tape Features
- Environmentally friendly and corrosion-resistant thermoplastic PE (Polyethylene).
- Continuous glass fiber content of more than 60%.
- Resin color can be customized.
- It can adopt 0°/90° cross tiling to achieve stronger mechanical strength.

Applications
This kind of PE UD tape is especially suitable for high-strength pipes in the oil and gas industry. Pipes coated with continuous fiber-reinforced thermoplastic composites are called reinforced thermoplastic pipes (RTP). They are much stronger than metal or plastic pipes made of traditional materials.
