Norplex-Micarta RT507F

Chemical Family
Silicones

RT507F is manufactured using a fine weave glass fabric combined with a silicone resin system. It has excellent electrical properties under humid conditions, superior heat and arc resistance. Typical applications include heating appliance insulation, welding equipment nozzle insulation, heat barriers and specialty bearing applications. The fine weave fabric substrate provides a “finer” finish on the surface of the finished part. RT507F also complies with MIL-I-24768/17, Type GSG and ASTM D709 Type IV Grade G-7.
