Phil,

There are several manufacturers of this type of material, static dissipative
FRP.  They are fairly expensive.

The manufacturer's I know of are:

Mfr: Permali
Mat'l: Durostone CAS761, Durostone CAG762

Mfr: Norplex Micarta
Mat'l: Wavemax 5000

Mfr: Vonn-Roll Isola
Mat'l: Durapol IGM-L200, Delmat CDM ESD 68940, Delmat DM ESD 68610

Most of these are sold through distribution only. I would contact the MFRs
for data-sheets and distributors near you.  

However, I found that unless you buy standard sheet sizes, you pay even
more.  When I was looking at buying direct to machine internally, prices
ranged from $100 / sq-ft all the way to $310 / sq-ft, which didn't make it
very cost effective.  In my opinion, it is a much better deal to use a
tooling fab shop, such as the one Rich provided to you.  There are others
also.

Subject: [TN] Need recommended material for a wave profiling pallet

Good morning,

I have a profiler that I want to mount in/on a panel I can use repeatedly in
my wave solder machine.  I've seen a white material, at ACI  in
Philadelphia, used for other types of soldering pallets, but I have no
information on the material.  Hopefully the material can be easily machined
without special equipment or tools.

Can someone point me to this material?

Thanks in advance.

Phil Nutting
