Fr4 pcb board material

Most printed circuit boards are made from glass reinforced epoxy laminates. Although there are various laminates on the market, FR-4 is widely used and widely accepted as the standard material for PCB manufacturing. FR-4 is a good electrical insulator with good strength to weight ratio and flame retardancy.

The standard FR-4 materials used in our products are high temperature, high TD and low CTE 150tg materials. If higher Tg materials are required, we also provide 170t g version of standard FR-4 materials, which can be selected in the quotation process.

Be careful:

The 170t g FR-4 material is equivalent to the popular Isola 370hr material in electrical and mechanical properties, and its function is very similar. There is a recorded physical difference, Isola’s 370hr is listed as 180t g of material.
