DISTINCTIVE PROPERTIES
High Density Boards are versatile materials which combine the following distinctive properties not available in any other individual material:
- Good thermal stability at high temperatures
- Low contact thermal shock thus eliminating fracture in items like glass components
- Low thermal conductivity
- High temperature resistance
- Good anti-tracking properties
- High arc resistance
- Ability to withstand high frequencies
- High strength even at high temperatures
- Extremely hardwearing leading to long product life cycle.
- Easy machineable without splitting or chipping
- Easy fixing by fasteners or adhesives
- Suitability as fire check barriers
- Good alkali resistance
- Non metallic thus controlling problem of induced currents
- Availability in high thickness blocks of up to 100 mm leading to convenient manufacturing of components
- Non-rusting
APPLICATIONS
The distinctive properties of
High Density Boards lead to their applications in numerous diverse areas. Some of these applications are:
- In Arc chutes and deflector plates on air-break circuit breakers, contactors and fuse gear
- As spacer strips and end packing blocks in distribution transformers
- For the control and extinction of electric arcs
- For handling and transferring hot glass components in the moulding areas, conveyor systems and annealing lehrs
- For manufacture of jigs, dies, moulds, guides, buffer strips, tubes, rods and other machined components
- As core plates in foundries and in furnaces
- For insulation of heated plattens in presses
- For insulation of coils, as top plate or support blocks in induction furnaces
- As guide strips or splash boards in handling of molten metals on hot castings
- For transportation of hot metal and pot line insulation in the aluminium industry
- As fire barriers or fire check doors
