Applications

This site shows only a few of the many applications for composite pultrusions. Innovating technical areas, such as the sports and aerospace industry, were the first to profit from the benefits. Recently the unique qualities of pultruded products are being used by a wide variety of industries. Your line of business might also profit from the outstanding properties pultruded products have to offer.

Click on one of the industries below for an overview of possible applications. More specific applications of the DPP high performance pultrusions can be found on the pages; Custom products and Standard products.

Kite Applications The frame-elements of modern kites are made of pultruded composites. Because of the high demands most elements are made of carbon fibre. The use of epoxy, instead of the generally used vinylester, provides the product with outstanding mechanical properties. The following products are being used: Solid round rods (unidirectional and winded), tubes (unidirectional and winded), rectangular rods. Aero Sport applications Trailing edges, leading edges, spars, wing joiners, capstrips, steering-rods, frame elements Water Sport applications Masts, booms, paddle-bars, oars, tillers, tiller-extensions, battens, shafts, structural parts. Winter Sport applications Ski-sticks, flag-poles, ski-poles, fence components. Motor Sport applications Drive shafts, steering shafts, steering rods, frame elements, structural elements.
