Known for its use in the aerospace industry, where a balance of weight and strength is critical, carbon fiber is now often machined into panels for structural framing, machinery components, and robotics.

Often used to build frames and structures, these lightweight sheets combine the strength and stiffness of carbon fiber with the impact resistance of Kevlar.

A good all-around choice, Garolite G-10/FR4 is strong, machinable, and electrically insulating. It meets UL 94 V-0 for flame retardance.

Resisting heavy impacts and temperatures up to 500° F, these Garolite sheets are used in machinery such as turbine bearings and downpipe gaskets.

Use this Garolite glass carbon to divert static charges that can damage equipment.

Use Garolite G-10 in place of Garolite G-10/FR4 for applications that are sensitive to halogen, such as in nuclear plants. It's strong, machinable, and electrically insulating.

Garolite G-7 withstands temperatures up to 425° F—higher than any other grade of Garolite. While not as strong as Garolite G-9 sheets, these sheets and bars offer better arc resistance in dry environments and a higher level of electrical insulation.

Frequently called electrical-grade Garolite, this Garolite G-9 is strong, electrically insulating, and arc resistant in dry environments.

Hard fiber is the easiest composite to machine, making it good for creating custom parts. Also known as vulcanized fiber.

Offering excellent arc and track resistance, this GPO3 fiberglass is often used for electrical applications in humid environments.
