Corrosion-Resistant FRP Dampers
Corrosion-Resistant Fiberglass Dampers for Air Handling & Process Systems
Cortrol supplies corrosion-resistant fiberglass dampers designed to regulate airflow, isolate sections of HVAC and process ductwork, and support industrial ventilation applications where corrosion, aggressive environments, or chemical exposure are concerns. These dampers are engineered for durability, performance, and compatibility with corrosive systems.
Cortrol offers these damper solutions through Belco (a division of NOV Fiber Glass Systems), a trusted manufacturer of fiberglass reinforced plastic (FRP) damper products
Fiberglass Dampers for Corrosive Air Handling
Fiberglass dampers provide a corrosion-resistant alternative to metal dampers in applications where exposure to moisture, chemicals, salt air, and aggressive process atmospheres can rapidly degrade traditional components.
These dampers are specifically designed to:
- Regulate airflow through duct systems
- Isolate or shut off flow in HVAC and industrial ventilation
- Maintain performance in corrosive or chemical environments
- Integrate with corrosion-resistant duct, scrubbers, and process exhaust systems
Typical service environments include odor control systems, scrubbers, ventilation exhausts, and air handling applications in chemical and process industries.
Belco Fiberglass Damper Models
Belco FRP dampers are constructed with corrosion-resistant materials and resins designed to match the operating conditions of the duct or air system. Common damper types include:
- Control and balancing dampers — regulate airflow and balance system performance
- Isolation dampers — used for shutoff or low-leakage performance
- Backdraft dampers — prevent air from flowing back into a system when flow stops
Belco’s fiberglass FRP dampers are built for reliable performance in corrosive HVAC and industrial environments and are available in multiple models suited to specific applications.
How Dampers Fit Your System
Dampers are an essential component of air handling, ventilation, and process exhaust systems. When selected and installed correctly, corrosion-resistant FRP dampers help:
- Improve system control through adjustable airflow management
- Enhance performance in environments where metal dampers would corrode
- Reduce maintenance costs by using durable materials designed for chemical service
- Support safety and environmental control by isolating and controlling airflow
Cortrol can help align damper selection with your HVAC, scrubber, odor control, or industrial ventilation system design.
