Rexolite Plastic Sheets - Rexolite Machined Parts

Rexolite® is a transparent, rigid insulating material created through a unique cross linking process. It is often used for high frequency substrates, microwave components, and lenses with acoustic, optical and radio frequency applications. One of the most notable properties of Rexolite® is its dissipation factor which is 200 times better than Nylon. Rexolite® is dimensionally stable, optically clear(approximately the same as Acrylic), and has excellent sound transmission characteristics.

What Is Rexolite?

Rexolite is a rigid, transparent industrial plastic created through a cross-linking process applied to polystyrene. This process produces a thermoset material with improved stability compared with standard plastics. The resulting structure allows Rexolite to maintain its electrical and physical properties even under demanding operating conditions.

The material is recognized for its low dielectric constant and stable electrical performance. These characteristics make Rexolite suitable for high-frequency electronics and communication equipment. Manufacturers frequently machine Rexolite into connectors, microwave components, and signal transmission parts where precise material properties are required.

Rexolite is commonly supplied as plastic sheets, rods, and blocks that can be machined into finished components. These stock shapes support fabrication for custom parts used in specialized equipment.

Forms and Availability

Manufacturers can obtain Rexolite in several stock forms for machining and fabrication. Plastic sheets are commonly used for flat components, panels, and precision-cut parts. These sheets allow machinists to cut, mill, and shape the material into custom configurations for electronic assemblies and research equipment.

Rexolite rods and blocks are also available for producing round or three-dimensional parts. These shapes are frequently used for connectors, housings, lenses, and insulating components.

Emco Industrial Plastics, Inc. provides access to Rexolite materials in multiple sizes and thicknesses. This allows manufacturers to select the appropriate material dimensions for their projects. The availability of plastic sheets and other stock shapes supports fabrication for both small production runs and larger manufacturing programs.

Key Applications

Rexolite is used in industries that require consistent electrical and mechanical performance:

• Microwave and RF equipment: antennas, circuit substrates, connectors
• Aerospace and defense: radar windows, electronic housings
• Acoustic and sonar devices: sonar lenses, sound-transmitting components
• Scientific and laboratory equipment: precision housings, high-voltage electrical parts

Its combination of machinability, electrical performance, and dimensional stability supports specialized components in these sectors.

Advantages of Rexolite

Rexolite offers several benefits for manufacturers and engineers:

• Maintains low dielectric loss for minimal signal interference
• Remains stable under mechanical stress for precision machining
• Transparent appearance supports optical or inspection applications
• Efficient sound transmission for acoustic equipment
• Resistant to moisture and chemicals for reliable performance in demanding environments

These properties make Rexolite a dependable choice when performance and consistency are required.
