Your Trusted Partner for Advanced Plastic Solutions
BeePlastic proudly offers FR-4/G10 epoxy glass fiber sheets and rods, engineered to meet the toughest industrial and electronic demands. Crafted from high-strength woven glass fiber cloth and epoxy resin, these materials are renowned for their exceptional mechanical performance, electrical insulation properties, and flame retardancy (FR-4).
Our products serve industries such as electronics, aerospace, marine, automotive, and industrial machinery. Available in water green and black finishes, these sheets and rods cater to applications requiring high precision, durability, and safety.
Whether you are manufacturing printed circuit boards (PCBs), building structural components, or designing custom parts for demanding environments, our FR-4/G10 solutions deliver unmatched performance.
What is FR-4/G10?
FR-4 and G10 are glass epoxy laminates that have become the gold standard in industrial and electronic applications. FR-4 incorporates flame-retardant properties, making it ideal for environments where safety is critical, while G10 is a versatile alternative for applications that do not require flame resistance.
Both materials are thermosetting composites, offering excellent dimensional stability and resistance to moisture, heat, and chemicals. This makes them indispensable for creating components that must perform under high stress, whether mechanical, thermal, or electrical.
Why Choose FR-4/G10 from BeePlastic?
- High Strength and Durability: These materials can withstand high mechanical loads and offer superior resistance to wear and tear.
- Electrical Insulation: With a high dielectric strength, FR-4 and G10 protect sensitive components from electrical failures.
- Moisture Resistance: Low water absorption ensures reliability in humid or wet environments.
- Customization Options: BeePlastic offers custom machining and fabrication services to meet specific application needs.
Material Features & Benefits
1. Superior Mechanical Properties
FR-4/G10 materials exhibit high tensile, compressive, and flexural strength, making them suitable for heavy-duty applications. Their robustness ensures long-term reliability, reducing maintenance costs and extending product life.
2. Outstanding Electrical Insulation
Designed for electronic components, these laminates prevent electrical leakage and maintain operational safety, even under high voltages. This is crucial for manufacturing PCBs, switches, and transformer insulation.
3. Thermal Resistance
FR-4 materials can endure continuous operating temperatures up to 130°C while maintaining their physical and electrical properties. This makes them suitable for high-temperature environments such as aerospace systems and industrial machinery.
4. Flame Retardancy
FR-4’s UL94 V-0 certification ensures flame retardancy, providing an additional layer of safety in critical environments, such as marine equipment and fire-sensitive manufacturing setups.
5. Dimensional Stability
These laminates maintain their shape and structural integrity even when subjected to mechanical stress or thermal cycling. Their reliability in demanding conditions makes them a favorite in precision manufacturing.
