Economical Garolite CE Sheets and Bars
- Color: Brown
- Max. Temperature: 235° F
- Tensile Strength: 6,000-10,000 psi (Good)
- Impact Strength: 1.4-1.7 ft.-lbs./in. (Poor)

These Garolite CE sheets and bars are often fabricated into parts where high strength is not required. They are made of a phenolic resin with cotton fabric reinforcement, which makes it easy to machine into mechanical parts, such as pulleys, gears, bushings, and washers. Garolite CE is sometimes called canvas-grade industrial laminate, phenolic, and Bakelite.

Graphite is added to these Garolite CE sheets to provide a slippery surface that reduces friction. The graphite also makes them conductive. Often used for bearings and wear pads, they're constructed of a phenolic resin with cotton fabric reinforcement. Garolite CE is sometimes called canvas-grade industrial laminate, phenolic, and Bakelite.
