Important ASTM's

ASTM's for
Fiberglass Reinforced Pipe (FRP)
Reinforced Thermosetting Resin Pipe (RTRP)

FRP Generators (per ASTM)

1. A designation code Generator for ASTM D2310: Standard Classification for Machine-Made "Fiberglass" (Glass-Fiber-Reinforced thermosetting-Resin) Pipe.
2. A designation code Generator for ASTM D2996: Standard Specification for Filament-Wound Fiberglass (Glass-Fiber-Reinforced Thermosetting-Resin) Pipe

Corrosion Resistant Fiberglass Piping Products are more likely to be epoxy or polyester. However, some manufacturers are introducing furan and other more expensive fiberglass resins. The Fiberglass reinforced piping (FRP) industry is still growing but making inroads against more traditional piping material

BTW: The 'D' Section of the ASTM Database contains a list of these ASTM's. The list has links to a Document Summary for each ASTM - which contains a brief summary / description - along with several 'purchase options' (such as download of .pdf files).
