What’s more, using lubricants to protect a component from wear is a two-step process, because the part must first be manufactured, then coated with oil or grease, adding cost to the manufacturing process.

After molding, the parts had to be cleaned, primed, painted and clear coated – with three rounds of drying in between.

https://www.avient.com/sites/default/files/2025-01/Glasforms Dowel Bar Application Overview.pdf
Glass fiber reinforced polymer (GFRP) dowel bars
offer advantages over traditional steel or epoxy-
coated steel bars:
• Electromagnetic transparency: ideal for high-
speed toll roads to prevent interference
• Corrosion resistance: the GFRP material
will not rust or corrode in salt or alkaline
environments
• Light weight: less than one-third the weight
of steel
• Does not bond to concrete: eliminates
the need for sleeves or grease to allow for
expansion and contraction
Glasforms™ composite dowel bars are tested and
approved to meet the following requirements:
• ASTM 1356 Glass Transition Temperature
• ASTM D570 Water Absorption
• ASTM 2344 Short Beam Strength
• ASTM 7617 Transverse Shear Strength
Glasforms™ Composite Dowel Bars
for Concrete Pavement Construction

This additive also eliminates the need for secondary coating or wetting processes to achieve equivalent performance, so no solvents or wetting agents are needed.
