Before the installation of the FRP grating, it needs to be cut. As for how to cut the FRP grating and how to cut it, let us take a look below.
1. Reasonably cut and process the grille according to the size and installation requirements, in order to achieve greater economic benefits without affecting the internal performance of the FRP grille. The cut end face needs to be coated with resin to ensure that its corrosion resistance is not affected.
A. Cutting:
Straight cutting: The glass fiber reinforced plastic grid can be cut on-site with ceramic discs or emery disc cutters, or even with ordinary steel saw blades.
Curve cutting: For arc cutting such as grille opening and circular arc cutting, electric saws or hacksaws equipped with metal cutting blades can be used.
B. Drilling:
Holes above 12mm can be drilled with ordinary drill press twist drills.
Small holes can be drilled with a portable electric hole processing machine or a general electric drill.
C. Polishing:
It can be polished with a portable angle grinder, grinder, ordinary file and sandpaper.
Note: a. This material cannot be turned and tapped.
b. Arbitrary cutting will not change the mechanical properties of the grid, and will not cause falling apart and other consequences.
2. Measures:
Before cutting, the operator should wear protective glasses and masks to prevent objects from splashing into the eyes and reduce dust inhalation; wear gloves and work clothes to prevent dust from entering the skin and causing allergies; choose a well-ventilated, brightly lit place for cutting; before cutting All power tools should be checked to see if they are in good condition.
