Glastic offers a wide selection of materials and shapes, standard products, bulk material compounds and custom molding capabilities to meet your needs. This is why they are used as components in delicate electronic devices as well as rugged parts in transformers and switchgear. High Mechanical Strength - Yet Lightweight Composite materials have a very high strength to weight ratio. They provide many of the structural characteristics of metal or wood, but weigh less. A broad selection of reinforcing materials, resins, and other raw materials allow us to optimize composite design to meet customer requirements.
Many Glastic composites offer exceptional flame resistance.
A wide selection of materials are available to meet UL subject 94V-0 Standards for flame resistance. Others are classified as Class A building materials with flame spread ratings in the range of 15 to 25. Certain grades of materials generate very low smoke and smoke toxicity when exposed to fire. Heat Resistance Heat resistant grades of Glastic composites offer property retention and dimensional stability at elevated temperatures. These materials are ideal for use where clean and attractive surfaces are desired and corrosion resistance is required.
