8" Recessed Fibreglass Column

8" Recessed Paneled, Square, Lightweight Pultruded Fiberglass Column, complete with Box Base and Capital, as well as top and bottom dividers as shown. Please note that middle dividers are available at an additional cost. We ship each Column with all the necessary Tapcon Screws and mounting hardware. They are manufactured from the most advanced fiberglass in the construction market which makes them last a lifetime. 

Pultruded columns are made using a pultrusion process and have the look of cast fibreglass columns at a lower cost! The process involves pulling continuous lengths of reinforced polymer, rather than pushing, as in extrusion through a forming die using a continuous pulling device. Resin, fillers and specialized additives are then added to produce a fine finish.

Though Pultruded Columns look the same as Permacast Columns, they carry only about half of the load-bearing capacity (Average Allowable - 10,000 lbs), which will be due for most applications. They are lighter in weight than the equivalent cast columns, which make them easier to ship, carry and install. Another difference between the columns is that the Pultruded columns cannot be split. These Pultruded columns are resistant to chemicals, rot, fading, insects, warping and moisture. Pultruded Fiberglass Columns come with a limited lifetime warranty for material and workmanship when properly installed.
