Model G-5, G-9

Glass cloth/melamine laminates with high electrical insulation, arc resistance and heat resistance, in sheet and tube.

Description

G-5 and G-9 grades combine glass cloth with melamine resin for high dielectric strength, mechanical strength, heat resistance and low moisture absorption. G-9 adds enhanced arc resistance and thermal endurance for high-voltage and power distribution equipment. Both grades are arc resistant and self-extinguishing.

Key features

  • Sheet sizes 36" x 48" and 48" x 96"; thickness 0.015" to 3.000"
