ROD ⌀28
| Diameter (D) | 28 mm |
| Mass per metre (published) | 1.12 kg/m |
Dimensioned cross-section drawing in DXF — no login, no email. Opens in AutoCAD, DraftSight, LibreCAD, and every major CAD package.
| Cross-section area A | 615.8 mm² |
| Moment of inertia Ix | 3.017 cm⁴ |
| Moment of inertia Iy | 3.017 cm⁴ |
| Section modulus Sx | 2.155 cm³ |
| Section modulus Sy | 2.155 cm³ |
| Radius of gyration rx | 7.000 mm |
| Radius of gyration ry | 7.000 mm |
| Torsion constant J | 6.034 cm⁴ |
| Mass per metre (calculated) | 1.17 kg/m |
Derived exactly from the cross-section geometry by polygon integration. The published mass per metre is the authoritative catalog value; the calculated figure is a geometric cross-check. Because FRP modulus is ~1/10 of steel, deflection usually governs design — use the deflection calculator for span checks.
| Property | Value | Test method |
|---|---|---|
| Tensile modulus E_L (longitudinal) | 23 GPa | EN ISO 527-4 |
| Transverse tensile modulus E_T | 7 GPa | EN ISO 527-4 |
| Tensile strength (longitudinal) | 240 MPa | EN ISO 527-4 |
| Tensile strength (transverse) | 50 MPa | EN ISO 527-4 |
| Flexural strength (longitudinal) | 240 MPa | EN ISO 14125 |
| Flexural strength (transverse) | 100 MPa | EN ISO 14125 |
| Interlaminar shear strength (ILSS) | 30 MPa | EN ISO 14130 |
| Pin-bearing strength (longitudinal) | 150 MPa | EN 13706-2 Annex D |
| Pin-bearing strength (transverse) | 70 MPa | EN 13706-2 Annex D |
| Compressive strength (longitudinal) | 240 MPa | EN ISO 604 |
| Barcol hardness | 45 | ASTM D2583 |
| Water absorption (24 h) | 0.6 % | EN ISO 62 |
Data basis: F1-published general-purpose laminate (FRP Profile Design Manual DOC-PF-2026-EN Rev. A); ILSS 30 MPa published above the EN 13706 minimum of 25 MPa; transverse values are EN 13706-3 Table 1 grade minimums. Standard isophthalic polyester is not fire-retardant — for ASTM E84 Class 1 specify the FR-E23 grade. Compressive strength, Barcol hardness and water absorption are not specified by EN 13706 — the figures shown are typical industry values for this resin system, pending F1 certified test data; request certified values before final design.
Standards: EN 13706 Grade E23.
Values marked "verify before release" are pending certified test data and are never estimated. Request batch-traceable certified data via the quote form before final design.
