FIBERBOND® Fiberglass Piping Systems
Series 20FR16
Description:
The FIBERBOND® 20FR16 Fiberglass Piping Series is a fiberglass reinforced pipe product manufactured by
filament winding utilizing a premium grade fire retardant epoxy vinyl ester resin and a 20-mil (0.50mm) liner,

All spans rated for SG=1.0 (water) and is limited by 1) a bending stress of 1,000psi (6.9MPa) for dead weight
only, 2) a temperature of 150deg F (65deg C), and 3) a deflection of 0.50in. (12mm) over three spans. Maximum
spacing is 30ft (9.1m). Actual spacing in the field may be shorter due to other design conditions such as wind
®
loads. Information on larger pipe sizes is available from EDO Specialty Plastics. Data for sizes 2" through 4" are
based on a minimum 0.25" (6mm) wall thickness suitable for IMO A.753(18) L3 fire endurance applications.
Thinner wall thicknesses are suitable for non-L3 applications. Wall thicknesses may be heavier at applications
above 150EF (65EC).
