Flatwork Pools & Decks Products Made in USA About Register interest

Product reference Β· For engineers & estimators

Straight bar. Factory shapes. Full paper trail.

Everything you need to spec Pultrax GFRP: launch bar sizes, the factory bent-shape families, the standards the bar is made and designed to, and the QC testing behind every lot out of Yuma.

Straight bar

Launch sizes: #3 and #4

The two sizes that cover flatwork, pools, and most residential reinforcement. Our pultrusion line handles 4–32 mm β€” for other diameters, contact us.

Size Nominal diameter Standard length Nominal weight Guaranteed tensile*
#33/8" (10 mm)20 ft + custom cuts0.11 lb/ftPer ASTM D7957 datasheet
#41/2" (13 mm)20 ft + custom cutsPer datasheetPer ASTM D7957 datasheet

* Guaranteed design values (tensile strength, modulus, bond) are size-specific and published on the technical datasheet supplied with every quote β€” typical GFRP tensile runs ~145 ksi for small bars, more than double Grade 60 steel. Bundle counts and pallet quantities are confirmed at quote.

Bent shapes

Seven shape families, made at the factory

GFRP cannot be field-bent β€” bends are formed during manufacturing, before the resin cures. You order bent shapes together with straight bar, and they arrive ready to tie. One material for the whole cage: no steel-GFRP hybrid workarounds.

L-bars

Corners, footing-to-wall dowels, slab edges.

U-bars

Bond beams, wall caps, trench mesh ends.

Z-bars

Offsets and step transitions.

Closed stirrups

Beams, columns, grade beams β€” standard sizes stocked.

Hairpins

Anchor bolts, pole bases, slab edge reinforcement.

J-hooks

Hooked anchorage where development length is tight.

Custom shapes

Pool steps, radius walls, special details β€” from your drawing.

Ordering

Send your bar list or drawings with your quote request β€” shapes ship with your straight bar.

Standards & quality

Made to the spec. Designed under the code. Tested every lot.

ASTM D7957

The material specification for solid round GFRP bars for concrete reinforcement β€” dimensions, guaranteed tensile properties, moisture absorption, and alkaline resistance. Pultrax bar is manufactured to this specification.

ACI 440.11-22

The building code for structural concrete reinforced with GFRP, used alongside ACI 318. Your engineer designs Pultrax bar with it the same way they design steel with ACI 318.

QC testing program

Our in-house quality program tests production per ASTM D7205 (tensile), D2584 (fiber content), D7617 (transverse shear), and D7913 (bond to concrete), with results tied to lot numbers.

Documents with every quote.

Technical spec sheet, safety data sheet, and a sample certificate of analysis are supplied with quotes and orders β€” request them at spec sheet Β· SDS Β· sample CoA. Downloadable PDFs are coming to this page.
