High Pressure Laminate Sheets, Tubes and Rods

Paper, Cotton and Glass Cloth are combined with a variety of resin systems and laminated under heat and pressure to create a range of products with high Mechanical and Electrical values.

When heat and pressure are applied to the layers a chemical Polymerization is completed which transforms the layers into a solid mass which except by special means in unique cases, cannot be re-softened by the re-application of heat.

The structure of the resin is permanently changed to an infusible, insoluble state hence the terminology Thermosetting plastics.

Each grade has many desirable properties in important combinations – Mechanical, Electrical, Thermal and Chemical values resulting in a wide variety of materials versatile and unique in many important applications.
