General Info
EtroX® V is an engineered polymer formulated for the extreme demands of the electronics and semiconductor industries. EtroX® V is particularly suitable for machining high-precision test sockets with extremely small boreholes. Machined test sockets made from EtroX® V can be machined with a minimum diameter of 0.1 mm with clean round holes that have minimal to no burr formation. EtroX® V offers a combination of dimensional stability, hardness, low internal stress, high-temperature performance (250 C / 482 F), and low moisture absorption, making it an ideal option for back-end test socket applications, including jigs, fixtures, and test sockets.
Key Properties

Limitations
- Poor Chemical Resistance to Halogens and Their Acids Including Bromine, Chlorine, Fluorine, HBr and HF
Applications
- Electronics Manufacturing Jigs and Fixtures
- Semiconductor Test Sockets
- Holders for The Assembly of Smart Phones And Other Electronics Devices
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.
