Angles
and Channels
Electric
Insulating Structural Products Shaped to Meet Your Needs
Röchling Glastic structural products
are available in numerous channel and angle configurations.
We are the only manufacturer with a full line of angles
and channels that all meet or exceed NEMA GPO-3 specifications.
In addition to outstanding electrical properties, these angles
and channels have a high strength-to-weight ratio, and are UL
Recognized and flame, arc and track resistant.
Röchling Glastic Composites pultruded channels and angles are similar
in material construction to the Grade UTR flame and track resistant laminates.
A small amount of continuous glass roving is added to aid in pultrusion
processing.
These high-strength pultruded shapes have a wide variety of uses in both
electrical and non-electrical applications. They are arc and track resistant
and have a UL94 rating of V0.
These versatile GPO-3 shapes are easily machined to fit a variety of needs
in electrical design and construction. They are readily available in a variety
of profile sizes and lengths.
