Fortron® 4184L4

About
Fortron 4184L4 is the strongest and toughest glass/mineral reinforced product available. It offers excellent heat resistance at high loads and good chemical resistance. The electrical properties are excellent and the product is inherently flame-retardant. This product also offers low creep resistance and good rigidity due to the mineral content. Applications made of this grade include electronic components (i.e. bobbins, connectors and solenoid valves).&&
