Bakelite Sheet
Versatile phenolic laminate sheets for electrical and mechanical industrial applications
Overview
Bakelite sheets are phenolic laminate materials available in both paper-based and cotton fabric-based grades. They offer reliable electrical insulation performance and moderate mechanical properties for a wide range of industrial applications.
Paper grade bakelite is suitable for electrical insulation, terminal blocks, and switchgear components. Cotton grade bakelite offers higher impact resistance and superior machinability, making it the preferred choice for mechanical components that also require electrical insulation.
As a proven industrial material with decades of reliable service, bakelite sheets combine heat resistance, chemical resistance, and consistent quality at a competitive price point.
