Tufnol Grade 1P/13
- Chemical Family
- Phenols & Phenolics
Tufnol Grade 1P/13 is a low-cost commercial paper-based laminate, produced to meet the need for an economical material where electrical requirements are moderate. As a good basic, low voltage insulation material, this grade has a higher mechanical strength than the other grades in our phenolic paper range and greater impact strength. It can be machined readily and components can be hot punched in thicknesses up to 3.2mm.
