FRP Rods

West Coast Optilinks FRP Rods (Central Strength Member), round rods located in the center of fiber optic cables.

Combine the high-performance properties of glass reinforcements with unique resin formulations to produce a strong and cost-efficient cable reinforcement. West Coast Optilinks FRP is specially designed for use in all dielectric cable applications that require superior dimensional stability. The long, splice-free lengths enhance productivity in cabling operations. Also used in other tele-communications applications, the West Coast Optilinks FRP is typically located in the center of the cable with loose tubes or tight buffered fibers stranded around them. We are producing the backbone of OFC.
