Fiberglass window frames are created from the process of pultruded fiberglass passing through heated die resin bath. This allows for the fiberglass lineals to reach specific dimension lengths, depending on the specifications. Once stretched through the resin bath and cured, fiberglass lineals can then have a color coated finish applied. Fiberglass window frames are a lightweight material that is stronger than wood, and experiences less contraction and expansion when compared to vinyl, preventing warping that may occur in extreme or rotating temperature climates. Coatings are typcially applied in a factory setting to the fiberglass frame to improve long term durability and resistance against corrosion and chipping. This CP was based on a 58 mm wide fixed window frame with an expanded polystyrene foam inuslating core. This CP is meant to represent only frame itself and excludes other window components that may be used with all types of frames such as glass pane(s), films, sealant, seals, spacers, gas fill, and hardware.
