Gaskets Washers Transformers Machining components Industrial laminates Phenolic sheet is a hard, dense material made by applying heat and pressure to layers of paper or glass cloth impregnated with synthetic resin. These layers of laminations are usually of cellulose paper, cotton fabrics, synthetic yarn fabrics, glass fabrics or unwoven fabrics. Recommended for intricate high strength parts. Thermoset Plastic Laminate is a uniformly dense and structurally strong material that will not soften appreciably under the reapplication of heat. It is an extremely durable plastic that is lightweight and moisture resistant.
Laminates are available in sheet, rod, tube, and angle.
Since laminates are comprised of a combination of materials, they are also referred to as composites. The most versatile all around laminate, this grade is a continuous glass woven fabric base impregnated with an epoxy resin binder. It has extremely high mechanical strength, good dielectric loss properties, and good electric strength properties, both wet and dry. This grade is composed of a continuous glass woven cloth base impregnated with a melamine resin binder. Melamines are the hardest of all laminates, exhibiting good dimensional stability and are resistance.
