Modified Plastics for Electrical & Electronic Components
PBT GF30 V-0 for Coil Formers & Relay Bobbins
Flame-retardant glass fiber reinforced PBT is suitable for precision-molded coil formers and relay bobbins. It offers a combination of rigidity, heat resistance, electrical insulation, and dimensional stability for electrical and electronic components.
Key Advantages
UL94 V0 flame retardant rating: self-extinguishing within 10 seconds after flame removal, meeting safety requirements for parts near live circuits and hot windings.
Glass-fiber reinforced PBT delivers high rigidity and excellent dimensional stability, so the bobbin keeps precise dimensions for consistent winding and stable coil performance.
Outstanding heat resistance tolerates the continuous heat from energized coils and soldering processes such as wave soldering.
Low moisture absorption keeps electrical insulation stable even in humid environments.
Good creep resistance maintains tight tolerances under long-term clamping and wire tension.
PA66 / PA6 GF V-0 — Wire Harness Connectors
Glass fiber reinforced PA66 and PA6 compounds are suitable for wire harness connectors, electrical terminals, and connector housings. These modified nylon materials combine mechanical strength, thermal performance, and dimensional stability to support reliable connections in electrical and electronic assemblies.
Key Advantages
UL94 V0 flame retardant rating provides the fire safety required for connectors carrying live current.
Glass-fiber reinforced PA66 (or PA6) offers high mechanical strength and stiffness, so terminals stay secure under repeated plugging, unplugging and cable pull.
Good heat resistance copes with the temperature rise at terminals and contact points.
High dielectric strength and good tracking resistance (CTI) support safe electrical insulation.
Flexible choice: PA66 suits higher-temperature applications, while PA6 offers a more economical option with a well-balanced performance - both available as V0 flame-retardant grades.
Flame-Retardant ABS - Electric Meter Housings
Flame-retardant ABS compounds provide a balance of impact resistance, moldability, and surface quality for electric meter housings, covers, and electrical enclosures. Modified ABS grades can support complex housing designs while meeting application-specific flame-retardancy and mechanical performance requirements.
Key Advantages
UL94 V0 flame retardant rating meets the safety requirements for meter housings installed in homes and public spaces.
Good impact strength and toughness protect the meter and its internal components from handling and installation shocks.
Excellent surface finish and paintability enable clean, brandable housings with a smooth, professional appearance.
Easy injection molding and stable dimensions make medium-to-large housings economical to produce.
A cost-effective choice for large enclosures compared with engineering plastics, without compromising on safety.
PC V0 - Switch Panels
Flame-retardant polycarbonate (PC) is suitable for electrical switch panels, faceplates, and protective covers. PC compounds combine high impact strength, heat resistance, and dimensional stability, making them suitable for molded electrical components that require durability, a consistent appearance, and flame-retardant performance.
Key Advantages
UL94 V0 flame retardant rating delivers the fire safety required for switch plates mounted directly on walls near wiring.
High heat resistance withstands the temperature around switches and dimmers during prolonged operation.
Excellent dimensional stability keeps panels flat and true, resisting warpage caused by heat and humidity.
High impact strength and good scratch resistance keep the visible surface looking new over years of daily use.
Available in white or customer-specified colors - a clean, uniform appearance for switch panels and faceplates.
How to Choose Plastics for Electrical Components?
Choosing the right plastic depends on the component's operating temperature, flame-retardancy requirements, electrical insulation needs, mechanical loads, and molding conditions. Different formulations of PBT, PA6, PA66, ABS, and PC provide different performance balances.
