Vulcanized fiber - sheets, strips, rolls, stamped parts made of vulcanized fiber

Production of vulcanized fiber

Vulcanized fiber is one of the oldest plastics. Vulcanized fiber is an insulating material that is produced through a special chemical treatment of unsized paper.

Use of vulcanized fiber

The vulcanized fiber material is characterized by good electrical insulation and high rigidity. Vulcanized fiber is often used as an end star in electric motors and as an insulating material in spark arrestors. In the manufacture of anchors, vulcanized fiber is used as a slot seal. In the production of lights, vulcanized fiber is used as strain relief. Vulcanized fiber can also be used as a sealing material. Rods and threaded rods made of vulcanized fiber are used in the manufacture of transformers.

Examples of modern applications include:

  • Backing material for coated abrasives (e.g. grinding wheels)
  • Deep-drawn molded parts (e.g. case shells, welding masks)
  • Release film for the production of polyester laminates
  • Carrier for endless laminates
  • Carrier for plastic decors based on melamine resin
  • Supporting layer for real wood veneers and deep-drawn surfaces
  • Knife handles for sports and collector's knives
  • osmotic membranes
  • Roll coating in spinning mills
  • Top and bottom of bobbins for pickups for electric guitar and bass

Vulcanized fiber resistances

Vulcanized fiber is resistant to oil, alcohol and petrol.

Properties of vulcanized fiber

Vulcanized fiber is characterized by the following properties:

  • high mechanical strength
  • relatively light weight
  • good electrical insulation
  • spark quenching
  • hard burning
  • antistatic
  • insensitive to oils, fats, diluted acids and alkalis
  • high stability
  • good elasticity
  • good sliding properties (e.g. slide rails for drawers)
  • good workability (punching, cutting, forming)
  • pleasant, warm feel

vulcanized fiber colors

Vulcanized fiber is available in the following colors:

  • red (is the default color)
  • brown
  • wheat
  • black
  • white

In addition, vulcanized fiber can be painted in different colors.

Vulcanized fiber delivery forms: sheets, foils, rods

Vulcanized fiber is manufactured in rolls and sheets.

vulcanized fiber panels

Vulcanized fiber boards are then further processed into strips, cuts and stamped parts. Vulcanized fiber is also supplied in the form of tubes and rods. Vulcanized fiber rods are further processed into vulcanized fiber threaded rods.

Adhesive tapes made of vulcanized fiber

Vulcanized fiber is also supplied in self-adhesive form, for example as adhesive tape. These can be equipped with different adhesive systems.

Vulcanized fiber in the form of stamped parts

Vulcanized fiber is processed in large quantities in the manufacturing process of stamping into seals and washers. We also manufacture mass stamped parts.

Laser processing of vulcanized fiber

Vulcanized fiber can be laser processed with either a 10,6 µm or a 9,3 µm CO2 laser.

Laser cutting vulcanized fiber with a CO2 laser produces a clean cut with minimal discoloration.

Laser marking of insulation paper with a CO2 laser produces an indelible surface mark with no depth that can be either lighter or darker depending on the material being processed.

Depending on the material being processed, laser engraving of vulcanized fiber brings out both depth and contrast and is limited to the material thickness.

Applicable laser processing methods for vulcanized fiber

  • laser cutting
  • laser marking
  • laser engraving

dr Müller as contact person for vulcanized fiber parts

When it comes to vulcanized fiber, we are the right contact. You can buy vulcanized fiber in sheets, tubes, rods or in machined parts from us.

We carry vulcanized fiber in various strengths. We have vulcanized fiber panels up to a thickness of 50 mm in stock. We also have rolled goods from a thickness of 0,25 mm in stock.

Vulcanized fiber samples

You can get small sections of vulcanized fiber from us free of charge for samples. We will take larger samples of vulcanized fiber for a fee, and then credit you later for this vulcanized fiber if you buy vulcanized fiber parts from us.

Vulcanized fiber data sheets

You can download data sheets for the material vulcanized fiber by clicking on the PDF symbols. Here you can find the characteristics of the material, such as the temperature resistance or the chemical resistance as well as the dielectric strength.

Application-technical advice for vulcanized fiber

If you need data on the vulcanized fiber that you cannot find in the data sheets, our application technology department will be happy to advise you.
