Atlas Fibre LE Phenolic Rod

Atlas Fiber LE Phenolic Rod is a fine weave cotton fabric base phenolic laminate which provides a finer surface texture and better machinability than Grade CE. Grade LE is low in moisture pick-up and dissipation factor, and is excellent in all electrical properties. It can be machined easily and cleanly to very close tolerances, and is recommended for use where there is need for good mechanical properties combined with excellent electrical characteristics. LE is the "electrical" grade version of linen phenolic. Also available Linen L (Mil-I-24768/13 Type FBI).
