Bakelite / Phenolic in CNC Machining
Bakelite is a thermosetting phenol-formaldehyde resin known for electrical insulation, mechanical strength, heat resistance, and chemical resistance. RapidDirect CNC machines black and orange Bakelite for electrical components, automotive parts, industrial machinery, and other custom applications.
- Electrical insulation: Bakelite is used for insulating electrical components.
- Heat resistance: Its thermal performance supports parts used in demanding environments.
- Mechanical strength: Bakelite combines rigidity and strength for functional parts.
- Chemical resistance: The material resists many chemicals used in industrial applications.
Selection note: Bakelite is a thermoset material: it does not melt and flow like an injection-molding thermoplastic. CNC machining produces its rigid, dimensionally stable custom components.
