FRP (fiber reinforced plastic, commonly known as fiberglass) tent poles are widely used in outdoor tents, tarps, and other support structures due to their lightweight, high strength, corrosion resistance, and non-conductivity.
Low-Temperature Brittleness Risk: When the ambient temperature is below -15℃, the resin matrix becomes brittle, reducing its impact resistance. Caution should be exercised when using them for winter camping in northern regions.
Prevent Scratches from Sharp Objects: Although the FRP surface is weather-resistant, scratches from hard objects may damage the fiber layer, reducing structural strength. Avoid storing with keys, knives, etc.
Limited Fatigue Resistance: Repeated bending over a long period may cause micro-cracks, affecting structural strength. It is not suitable for high-intensity, frequent use during hiking or trekking.
Safety Hazards After Breakage: Once the pole breaks, exposed fiberglass may protrude, easily causing itching or scratches upon contact with skin. Inhalation poses a greater risk. Replace immediately.
