Formex™ Polypropylene Electrical Insulation:
Score It, Fold It, Depend On It
 Formex™ electrical
insulation products, crafted of durable,
flexible polypropylene, offer superior
protection for sensitive electronic
components and serve as a barrier to prevent
consumers and service workers from
experiencing electric shock. Its superior
dielectric strength, dimensional stability
and resistance to moisture and chemicals
make it the top choice for engineers and
designers. Unlike other materials, Formex™
electrical insulation provides lightweight,
flame retardant protection that meets strict
safety and environmental standards at a low
cost.
Formex™ electrical
insulation helps protect the sensitive
elements found within products such as solar
energy systems, personal computers, gaming
devices and household appliances. Formex is
used to prevent unintended contact between
circuit boards and housings and between
circuit boards themselves. Formex electrical
insulation is also used as a low-cost,
lightweight barrier to protect sensitive
parts or energized components from contact
with fingers or other objects.
 Flexible Electrical
Insulation for Multiple Applications
Due to its unique
composition, Formex™ electrical insulation
and barrier materials can be scored and
folded into multiple three-dimensional
shapes for flexible use in a wide variety of
applications. Parts fabricated from Formex™
are cost-effective replacements for
injection molded or sheet metal parts used
inside electrical equipment, such as air
baffles and wire organizers. In these
applications, Formex™ parts are not only
easier to use, but they also reduce tooling
and fabricating expenses and cut inventory
and warehousing costs.
Formex™ electrical
insulation is an ideal material for
electric-vehicle battery covers and other
applications, which must meet stringent
mechanical, environmental and chemical
specifications to ensure the safety of
vehicle operators, service personnel and
first responders. Battery covers constructed
with Formex™ are durable, lightweight and
cost effective.
