Substrate
Fiberglass comes in many forms. From woven to continuous filament mat, galss based substrates are used in electrical and high temperature applications.
Cotton or Linen can be an excellent choice of substrate in both electrical and mechanical applications.
Paper based grades are often used in electrical applications where the material can be punched due to its relatively thin requirements. Paper based materials can include covers of various color to provide a distinct appearance.
Norplex-Micarta can incorporate many different substrates to tailor the composite products to the specific applicaiton. Carbon fiber, Kevlar and nylon are just some of the potential substrates as well as combinations of substrates.
