Epoxy Machinable Board
Our range of technical composites based on fibreglass and epoxy resin allows us to offer you a complete selection of solutions up to a maximum temperature of 350°C.
These technical composites offer full thermal and electrical insulation. In addition to controlled flammability, they offer arc protection and can be used wherever temperature resistance, dimensional stability and mechanical resistance are essential parameters.
Furthermore, we have endeavoured to make not only strong materials, but also excellent workability in order to guarantee easy mechanical work with conventional tools.
Main properties of machinables Epoxy Boards
- Low thermal conductivity
- Very good resistance to high temperatures

- Flat seals and sealing organs
- High frequency welding techniques
- Press tray insulation
- High-voltage equipment
- Heating elements
Our range of machinable Epoxy Boards
E-6000
220°C continuous temperature and 320°C peak temperature. Laminate made from glass mat and beige/white epoxy resin. This product combines a low thermal conductivity (0.25 W/mK) and a low density, which enables the production of thinner and lighter insulation.
E-60
260°C continuous temperature and 330°C peak temperature. Laminate made from glass roving and brown epoxy resin. This product is mechanically and thermally more efficient than the E-6000 but less efficient as thermal insulation.
E-70
Laminate made from fibreglass and epoxy resin. This product is intended for high-temperature applications up to 350°C.
