T-UD series GPE800 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.

GPE800 UD Tape Features

  • Environmentally friendly and corrosion-resistant thermoplastic PE (Polyethylene).
  • Continuous glass fiber content of more than 65%.
  • Thickness can reach 0.3mm.
  • Tensile strength can reach 800MPa.

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.
