Lamitex® G-11/G-10 EP GC 22

1 of 11 products in this brand
Lamitex® G-11/G-10 EP GC 22 laminated sheet is a woven glass fabric composite impregnated with an epoxy resin. It is primarily used for mechanical, electrical and electronic applications where extremely high mechanical strengths are required at room and moderate temperatures. It is frequently specified for its excellent resistance to chemicals and retention of good electrical properties in dry and high humidity environments. G-11 is non-brominated, is not flame retardant and should not be confused with a similar glass epoxy grade FR-5 which is flame retardant.

Features & Benefits

Product Highlights

LAMITEX® laminated materials provide a unique range of design benefits. LAMITEX® composite laminates are engineering materials made from layers of fibrous reinforcement such as cotton cloth, paper or woven glass cloth, which are bonded together with high quality thermoset plastic resins. The layers are pressed together under high pressure and the resin is baked until it becomes solid, fusing the material into a tough, strong and dense material. Combinations of phenolic, epoxy, melamine or silicon resins saturated and cured in paper, cotton fabric, glass fabric or aramid fiber fabrics offers a range of laminate grades with properties designed for everyday use to the most demanding by today’s technologies.

LAMITEX® laminates combine mechanical strength and electrical insulation with chemical and weather resistance. They are rigid, with a high strength to weight ratio, and most grades can be machined with standard machine tools to make finished components. Franklin offers a comprehensive range of grades for our customers’ diverse applications.
