UL JLC Listed Red Thread' -IA Piping System <br /> Fiber Glass Systems, L.P. (FGS) <br /> Worldwide Leader in Composite Piping <br /> We call our fiberglass reinforced piping systems'time tested" because they have been proving their durability and value in <br /> harsh environments and unforgiving applications for decades. In fact, we're closing in on our 60th anniversary, and some <br /> of our buried fuel-handling installations have been in the ground for almost 40 years. <br /> We offer extensive experience in designing, engineering. manufacturing. fabricating, and installing piping systems for <br /> caustic chemicals, abrasive slurries. hot temperatures, and high pressures-as well as less abusive forms of service. <br /> Fiber Glass Systems. L.P. (FGS)combines the resources of Star Fiberglass and Smith Fibercast. With five manufacturing <br /> facilities in North America and two in the Far East. FGS offers a wide range of products to meet most piping needs. <br /> FGS offers the broadest. most comprehensive product selection available. We're the only manufacturer producing <br /> both filament wound and centrifugally cast piping. We market our products through a worldwide network of stocking <br /> distributors. <br /> We are supported by the multi-billion global resources of our parent company, National Oilwell Varco - the leader in high- <br /> performance oil field equipment and advanced drilling and well-servicing technologies, with more than 5.000 employees in <br /> 49 countries. <br /> On-site installation training is available by FGS field technicians. Free FGS piping-design CD-ROM programs for all <br /> markets, including the UL-Listed Fuel Piping markets (,,•.,ith the Success by Design engineering program), are available. <br /> IRA <br /> .T * . .� , •�4. �`' rj rte. ,.� -_ <br /> Filament Winding Process <br /> Resin-impregnated glass fibers are wound onto a mandrel in a predetermined pattern under controlled tension. Repeated <br /> passes create a strong layered wall of the desired thickness. This process results in a pipe that is at least 75% glass- <br /> reinforced for optimum internal pressure capability. <br /> d Prg�e <br /> NON", <br /> 9�� Pxis <br /> Fiber <br /> Placement <br /> star/ Head <br /> Rotation Resin Bath <br /> 10 <br />
