In the manufacturing of switches and sockets, various plastic materials are used to ensure the products have sufficient strength, heat resistance, and electrical insulation properties. Here is a brief description of these materials and their applications in switches and sockets:

  1. PC/ABS (Polycarbonate/Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene):

    • Characteristics: This blend combines the strength and heat  resistance of PC with the toughness and processing ease of ABS. It has excellent impact resistance, heat resistance, and UV resistance.

    • Applications: Commonly used for housings and structural components due to its good mechanical properties and attractive surface finish.

  2. PBT(Polybutylene Terephthalate):

    • Characteristics: PBT has excellent chemical resistance, electrical insulation properties, and wear resistance. It has low moisture absorption and good dimensional stability.

    • Applications: Often used for parts requiring good electrical insulation and dimensional stability, such as connectors and terminal blocks.

  3. ABS (Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene):

    • Characteristics: ABS is known for its good impact resistance, toughness, and ease of processing. It also has good electrical properties and surface finish.

    • Applications: Typically used for enclosures, covers, and other parts where good appearance and impact resistance are important.

  4. PA66 GF30(Polyamide 66 with 30% Glass Fiber):

    • Characteristics: PA66 GF30 is a glass fiber-reinforced nylon with high strength, stiffness, and heat resistance. It also has good wear resistance and electrical insulating properties.

    • Applications: Ideal for high-stress components that require excellent mechanical properties and heat resistance, such as structural parts and mechanical supports within switches and sockets.


Each of these materials is chosen based on the specific requirements of the component being manufactured, such as mechanical strength, heat resistance, electrical insulation, and overall durability.


The company specializes in the production of high-quality thermoplastic materials, including ABS, PC, PA6,PA66, PMMA, PP etc
