Glass Reinforced Polyester Sheet

The silicone rubber coating protects against sparks and molten metal splash.

Glass reinforced polyester sheet.

Gpo 3 is strong stiff dimensionally stable and impact resistant. The back up laminate consists of layers of glass fiber and polyester resin. Gpo 3 is a ul recognized grade and is highly flame retardant and low smoke generating. Smc sheet moulding compound and dmc dough moulding compound.

Gpo 2 is the laminate of choice when arc or flame resistance is required. Gpo 3 is a glass mat reinforced thermoset polyester molded sheet which is both arc and track resistant. Glass polyester is a fiberglass reinforced polyester resin laminate commonly used in mechanical applications and is one of the most commonly used electrical insulation materials. Made from thicker and denser fiberglass than standard spark resistant sleeving this sleeving is more abrasion resistant and provides better insulation.

Gpo 3 is also used for mechanical applications where strength stiffness dimensional stability and relatively low cost are required. The formglas frp composite material has a class 1 or a fire rating. Gpo 1 is a cost effective general purpose laminate. Glass polyester is a glass mat reinforced polyester.

The ideal solution is a family of structural fibre reinforced thermostets. They are a useful group of materials that fall in price and performance between paper and cotton fabric laminates and high performance woven glass types. Mcmaster carr is the complete source for your plant with over 595 000 products. When frp is molded into shapes the geometry of the shape imparts physical properties to the parts such as strength and stiffness.

98 of products ordered ship from stock and deliver same or next day. It is a solid choice for applications in which good electrical properties good physical strength and moderate heat resistance are required. It is widely used for electrical insulating applications. The material also has excellent electrical properties including flame arc and track resistance.

Tufnol polyester glass mat laminates are produced by combining polyester resin with continuous roving glass mat. Glass reinforced polyester gpo 3 laminate sheet 16 this grade is typically available in 36 by 72 sheet sizes. Two grades are available offering compliance with nema types gpo 2 nema gpo 3 and din 7735 type hm 2471.
