FRP nuts & matched assemblies

Hex nuts in metric and UNC series, with polyester (UP), vinyl ester (VE) and epoxy (EP) material options for review. Ask about square nuts and bolt-and-nut sets for your drawing.

Metric: M8, M10, M12, M16, M20, M24. UNC: 3/8″–16 through 1″–8 in the listed rod series.

Confirm nut height, bearing face, resin and compatible rod or bolt.

FRP washers

Flat composite washers offered in UP and VE materials. Select the complete washer geometry with the fastener and supporting surface.

Catalog diameter labels: Ø9, Ø11, Ø13, Ø17, Ø21 and Ø26.

Confirm bore, outside diameter and thickness; the catalog labels alone do not define the finished washer.

Drawing-based selection

Molded FRP fittings

Molded connection pieces for tube and profile assemblies. Send the mating section and connection drawing to review fit, fastening and tooling.

Geometry, wall thickness, hole layout, color and molding requirements by approved drawing.

Review the whole connection and required tests before release.

Need a matched set?

Send the rod or bolt, nut and washer requirements together. Add the mating profile and a marked connection sketch so the interfaces can be checked in one review.

Include quantities per size and any packing or assembly requirements.

Nominal catalog sizes

Threaded rod sizes & matching nut series

Select a series to carry it into your inquiry. Inch-to-millimeter values identify nominal diameter only; UNC and metric threads are not interchangeable. Metric pitch and tolerance must be confirmed.

Fasteners for fiberglass grating

Specify the grating type, bar or mesh geometry, support flange and underside access before selecting the clip. These are metal fixing kits for FRP panels; use the guide that matches your grating family.

Selection & quotation

Prepare a connection that can be quoted

01

Define the joint

Send the mating sections, hole pattern, grip length and access for installation. Identify whether the connection carries tension, shear or both.

02

Match the materials

List chemicals, concentration, temperature, outdoor exposure and any electrical isolation requirement. Select the fastener, nut and washer together.

03

Confirm the release details

Agree the thread tolerances, engagement, tightening procedure and test documents. Approve the drawing and sample requirements before production.

Ready with a BOM? Include quantity per size, delivery destination and target date. Attach the drawing on the inquiry form so F1 can review the complete supply scope.

Fastener selection questions

Are FRP and GRP fasteners the same product type?

GRP means glass-reinforced plastic. The FRP fasteners on this page use glass reinforcement, so fiberglass fasteners, GRP fasteners and GFRP fasteners refer to the same material family here. The resin, reinforcement and finished component still need to be specified.

Can a metric nut be fitted to a similar-sized UNC rod?

No. Match the thread system, diameter, pitch, tolerance and engagement length. A similar outside diameter does not make metric and UNC threads compatible. Request a matched rod, nut and washer set when the connection is being specified together.

Can FRP fasteners directly replace steel bolts?

Do not assume a size-for-size replacement. The joint needs its own review of tensile and shear demand, thread engagement, bearing area, creep, temperature and installation procedure. Provide the existing connection drawing and loads for assessment.

What installation torque should be used?

Use the installation procedure approved for the supplied rod or bolt, nut, washer and joint. A generic steel-bolt torque table does not establish a suitable FRP installation torque. Request the applicable tightening limits and supporting test data with the quotation.

Are grating clips also made of fiberglass?

The grating clips linked from this page are 316 stainless-steel hardware for FRP panels. Molded grating uses the M/C/J selection guide; pultruded grating uses M/J/T. These metal clips do not make an electrically insulating connection.

Can I request custom lengths or molded fittings?

Yes. Send the drawing, dimensions, quantity, resin or exposure conditions and delivery destination. F1 will confirm available sizes, tooling, sample requirements, minimum order quantity and lead time in the quotation.

Source the fasteners with the connection in mind

Send the dimensions, quantity, service environment, and destination. We acknowledge requirements within one business day.
