General Info
Durostone® is a heavy-duty glass fibre reinforced (FRP) plastic which offers extreme strength and excellent electrical, thermal and chemical properties. Durostone ® is manufactured by using Polyester, Vinylester, Epoxid- and modified Epoxy resins combined with glass fibers. Durostone CAS761 is a antistatic grade, recommended for applications where static-sensitive components are processed and is BLACK in color.

Key Properties
- Dimensionally stable and retain their flatness through repeated cycling in the PCB assembly process
- Excellent mechanical properties at elevated temperatures
- Low thermal conductivity of Durostone ® ensures optimal thermal distribution across the work area
- The base resin used to produce Durostone ® provides resistance to the chemicals used in fluxes and prevents solder pick-up
Limitations
Applications
- Wave Solder Pallets
- Printed Circuit Boards
- Solder Past Carriers
- SMT Replacement
- IR-Reflow

Resin Trade Names
Manufacturer Trade Names
Boedeker Plastics, Inc. stocks & supplies plastic sheet, rod, tube, film and custom profiles and machine parts from these shapes that are produced from plastic resin. In many cases the manufacturer of the shape has their own product trade name. If your specification calls for a specific resin grade or manufacturer trade name, we can supply a shape made from that resin to meet your specification or suggest an equal. If you require a specific resin or brand it must be specified at the time of order.
