CONTINUOUS FILAMENT WOUND PROFILES
This table represents examples of common continuous filament wound profile sizes.
https://www.avient.com/idea/weathering-storm-advanced-composites
Because of their inherent dielectric properties, glass fiber reinforced composites have long been used in electrical transmission and distribution applications such as insulators, arresters and other pole line hardware.
More recently, traditional wood and metal utility poles and cross arms are increasingly being replaced by polymer composites, typically made with glass reinforcements and produced using pultrusion or filament winding.
